On Thursday, a member of the Sudanese Sovereignty Council, Shams al-Din Kabbashi, told Sky News Arabia that the Rapid Support Forces began mobilizing their forces and capabilities for war more than 3 months ago.
Kabashi spoke, in an interview with “Sky News Arabia”, regarding the course of fierce fighting between the army and the Rapid Support Forces in Sudan, while the humanitarian situation in the country is worsening.
He held the Rapid Support Forces responsible for violating the truce, then said, “There are attacks on our various sites.”
The military official confirmed that the states of Sudan are completely under the control of the armed forces, while there are conflicting reports regarding the situation on the ground.
Kabbashi confirmed that the US-Saudi initiative was advanced, then added, “I give good tidings to the Sudanese that the matter will not take long.”
As for the civilian casualties, Kabashi considered it responsible for what he described as the indiscriminate bombing of “traitors, rebels and putschists”.
Speaking regarding the settlement efforts, Kabbashi said, “We agreed to the IGAD initiative, but it seems that they did not get a response from the other party.”
Kabbashi indicated that the army agreed to the US-Saudi initiative, “but the RSF did not respect it,” he said.
And he added that if the initiatives do not lead to a settlement, the army is able to resolve the matter in a military way, according to him.
A member of the Sovereignty Council accused the Rapid Support Forces of being a Brotherhood institution established by the previous regime, adding that “if it were a civilian institution, it would have been dismantled.”
