A fleet of militia combat vehicles, weapons and ammunition stores destroyed in Bara

Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) in North Kordofan State launched a strike against the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) militia, destroying approximately 20 combat and armored vehicles in the Bara area, northeast of Al-Obeid.

The operation resulted in the destruction of a large warehouse of weapons, ammunition, and logistical support belonging to the militia, in addition to the deaths of at least 40 members inside the targeted camp.

According to informed military sources, the operation was based on accurate intelligence and continuous field monitoring of the militia’s movements, enabling SAF to carry out a surprise and effective attack.

For their part, sources within the RSF militia reported that the sector commandership in Bara formed an urgent investigation committee headed by Lt. Col. Abdel-Karim Susal, under the supervision of Col. Al-Na’im Abdullah, the sector commander, and including eight other officers. The committee aims to determine the causes of the heavy losses and the negligence of field commanders.

Information indicates a state of tension and confusion within the militia ranks, with field commanders trading accusations of negligence, even reaching the point of accusations of treason and providing secret information to the Armed Sudanese Forces. This reflects growing internal divisions within the Rapid Support Forces. This operation is part of a series of military moves undertaken by the Sudanese army to regain control of vital areas in the state and limit the militia’s expansion and its threat to security and stability.
