MEDIA STATEMENT

May 24, 2023

Despite our resolute commitment to the ceasefire agreement, the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) launched a series of unwarranted attacks today, violating international laws and norms.

In self-defense, our forces decisively repelled these assaults, seizing and destroying several tanks.

In Omdurman, after a targeted attack, our forces successfully shot down a SAF MiG jet fighter.

Committed to the humanitarian truce, the Rapid Support Forces calls on these aggressors to respect the ceasefire.

We emphasize that all hospitals under our control are free from military activities.

We are also prepared to ensure smooth aid delivery and support medical teams serving civilians.

The RSF stands against the SAF and its allies from the regime of former dictator Omar al-Bashir.

We will continue to protect our people, and remain committed to peace, democracy, and human rights, striving for a prosperous Sudan.
