**Sudanese Army Regains Control of Presidential Palace After Prolonged Conflict**
The Sudanese armed forces celebrated a pivotal victory as they reclaim the presidential palace from paramilitary rivals, bringing hope for stability.
In a pivotal development amidst Sudan's protracted civil war, the Sudanese army has announced its successful recapture of the presidential palace in Khartoum from the rival Rapid Support Forces (RSF). Images broadcasted on state television displayed soldiers in high spirits, cheering and celebrating their victory. The army's reclaiming of this key location represents a significant shift in power dynamics, as it wrestles control back after being ousted by paramilitary factions nearly two years ago.
Nabil Abdallah, spokesperson for the armed forces, reported on state media that the military not only regained the palace but also seized several government buildings in central Khartoum. "Our forces completely destroyed the enemy's fighters and equipment, and seized large quantities of equipment and weapons," he stated, underscoring the magnitude of the military's operations. The conflict, which ignited in Khartoum nearly two years ago, has since seen intense battles unfold, with the RSF controlling significant areas of both the capital and western Sudan.
As the army continues its offensive, it has made notable advancements in central Sudan in recent weeks. Witnesses reported explosions linked to drone strikes and air assaults occurring near the Republican Palace region, signaling ongoing hostilities. RSF commander Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, alias Hemedti, issued a vow of resistance to protect the territory under their control, threatening escalated confrontations in other parts of northern Sudan.
Despite ongoing warfare and substantial humanitarian crises, diplomatic efforts for peace negotiations have repeatedly faltered. Both the RSF and the Sudanese armed forces have been accused of extensive human rights violations, contributing to the dire conditions faced by civilians throughout the region. The situation remains fluid, with the country facing one of the deepest humanitarian emergencies as a result of the conflict, according to United Nations reports.
