Despite calls from G7 foreign ministers meeting in Japan, the UN and the United States “to end the violence immediately”, the fighting continues.
On the fourth day of the conflict, explosions shook Khartoum this morning where the situation remains ”chaotic”.
In the sky of the capital, the planes of the army of General Abdel Fattah al-Burhane, de facto leader of the country since the putsch of 2021, try to overcome intense fire from armored paramilitaries of the Rapid Support Forces ( FSR) of General Mohamed Hamdane Daglo, his second in the coup who has become his sworn enemy since Saturday.
As for the inhabitants, they remain cloistered in their homes without electricity or running water and see their food stocks melt away. The few grocery stores open warn that they will not last long without restocking.
The conflict between the two generals, latent for weeks, exploded when they were forced to announce their plan to integrate the FSR into the regular troops. Unable to agree on a timetable and the conditions of recruitment, they let the guns speak.
