Sudan's Armed Forces (SAF) on Tuesday announced that it regained control over national radio and television headquarters in the city of Omdurman from the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) paramilitary group.

"Your armed forces and other regular forces and sons of this country that are working alongside with the army have today succeeded in forcing the headquarters of the national cooperation for television and radio (a history and love of the Sudanese people) from the terrorist [RSF chief Mohamed Hamdan] Daglo militia and mercenaries from other countries," the military said in a statement.

The country has been mired in civil wars for years. In this particular war, hostilities between the SAF and the RSF have been ongoing since April 2023.

Over tens of thousands were killed and more than eight million were displaced from their homes due to this war, making it the world's largest displacement crisis.

Monday saw heightened clashes break out between the two groups on multiple fronts in Khartoum. The fighting occurred despite a recent UN Security Council resolution urging both parties to cease hostilities during the month of Ramadan.

"There will not be a ceasefire during Ramadan unless the opposition group leaves civilian homes and facilities," Sudanese armed forces Gen. Yasser Al-Atta said on Sunday.

A recent report by the Wall Street Journal made the shocking revelation that Ukrainian forces took part in this war by providing military assistance to the Sudanese army.

While the Sudanese army is aligned with Egypt and Saudi Arabia, the RSF is said to be backed by Russia. However, such claims are still subject to debate.
