MEDIA STATEMENT

The Rapid Support Forces strongly condemn the heinous act carried out by the coup forces and remnants of the former terrorist regime, which targeted innocent civilians residing in the areas of Mayo, Andalus, and Al-Azhari in Khartoum. These civilians suffered from indiscriminate artillery shelling and an aerial assault, resulting in the loss of 18 lives and leaving over 106 individuals injured, as reported by Bashaer Hospital.

The indiscriminate artillery shelling, originating from Armored Corps Al-Shajara region, caused extensive destruction to numerous residential properties, leading to a significant displacement of individuals seeking refuge elsewhere.

These atrocities committed by the usurping forces against the citizens of these areas flagrantly violate international humanitarian law. Such actions further strengthen our determination to address this criminal faction at its core.

While expressing unwavering solidarity with the victims of this indiscriminate bombardment, we earnestly implore regional and international organizations to denounce these abhorrent practices targeting defenseless civilians. Furthermore, we call upon the great nation of Sudan to unite and demonstrate solidarity, as we collectively strive to restore our legitimate rights to freedom, justice, equality, and democracy.
