The Sudanese army has broken the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces’ two-year siege of the strategic city of el-Obeid after the paramilitary group signed a charter paving the way for a breakaway government with its allies.
The Sudanese Armed Forces said Sunday it had retaken control of the town of el-Gitaina, south of the capital, Khartoum, and ended the siege on el-Obeid to the west, hours after the RSF signed a political charter in Kenya for a "government of peace and unity" to establish a parallel government with allied political and armed groups.
