Saudi Arabian newspaper Al-Ahdath reported that a new group of the Sudanese Rapid Support Forces concluded their military training in Saudi Arabia and are expected to fight in the Sudanese war, a matter refused and rejected by Sudan. 

On Wednesday, a new batch of RSF troops graduated in several military specialties in Saudi Arabia. 

Al-Ahdath noted that fresh graduates are expected to join the battle in Sudan through Ethiopia or South Sudan.

During the ceremony, the RSF spokesperson warned that the forces could reach the island city of Port Sudan. 

Since last year, as a result of the ongoing conflict in Sudan, more than 13,000 people have been killed with more than 30,000 others injured, Sudanese Health Minister Haitham Mohamed Ibrahim told Sputnik on April 15.

No negotiations as long as the war continues in Sudan: Burhan

However, the head of Sudan's Transitional Sovereignty Council, Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, affirmed on April 13 that he would refrain from negotiating with the Rapid Support Forces as long as the conflict continues.

He emphasized his dedication to the "Jeddah Platform" and stressed the importance of the Rapid Support Forces fulfilling their commitments.

Al-Burhan addressed army officers and soldiers in the Omdurman military region, west of Khartoum, stating that the armed forces are open to negotiation, arguing that the process and conditions must be clarified. He stressed that "we will not engage in negotiations as long as the war continues" and citizens' homes remain occupied.

He added, "If the rebels wish to negotiate, they must first remove their forces outside these occupied cities and gather in specific areas," adding, "We are committed to the Jeddah platform, but the other party must implement the obligations it has, according to what was signed in Jeddah."
