Sudan’s army has declared its rival paramilitary organisation, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), a rebel group and has ordered its dissolution, as fighting between the two raged for a third day, with the death toll continuing to rise.
The Sudanese foreign ministry said in a statement on Monday that General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, commander of the Sudanese army and the de facto head of state, had declared the RSF a rebel entity that was fighting the state and ordered its dissolution.
