KHARTOUM-(MaraviPost)-The Sudanese army on Sunday seized several strategic areas west of Abbasiya Tagali in South Kordofan after fierce clashes with the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and their ally, the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement-North (SPLM-N).

Witnesses reported that the fighting lasted several hours as both sides deployed heavy weapons in a battle that has intensified tensions in the disputed region.

Local residents described scenes of chaos as artillery fire and gunshots echoed across villages, forcing many families to flee their homes for safety.

Military sources indicated that the captured areas are considered critical supply routes previously controlled by RSF-affiliated forces.

Analysts say the Sudanese army’s latest gains mark a significant shift in momentum as government forces attempt to reclaim territories lost in recent months.

Humanitarian groups have raised concerns over the growing displacement, noting that renewed fighting in South Kordofan is worsening an already dire humanitarian situation.

Witnesses also reported that both the RSF and SPLM-N have been regrouping in nearby areas, suggesting that further clashes are likely in the coming days.

The situation remains fluid, with regional observers calling for urgent diplomatic intervention to prevent the conflict from escalating further.
