Earlier, the army announced that it had taken control of a major market in Omdurman, Khartoum’s twin city, which the RSF had used to launch attacks during the ongoing war. The army also claimed victory over the RSF in Khartoum, stating they now control most of the capital, including the vital commercial hub of Souq Libya.
The conflict between the army and RSF has escalated ethnic violence, created a humanitarian crisis, and led to widespread famine.

The violence has also worsened instability in neighbouring countries like Libya, Chad, and South Sudan.
