The office of the official spokesman for the armed forces denounced the UAE’s accusation that it bombed the premises of its ambassador in Khartoum, stressing that the army does not target the headquarters of diplomatic missions or the headquarters and facilities of international or voluntary organizations, nor does it use them as military bases or plunder their contents; referring to the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) Militia’s use of embassy headquarters as military barracks in Khartoum and the militia’s looting of the headquarters of diplomatic missions and international organizations.
The army explicitly accused the Al-Dagalo rebel militia and those who support it from countries known to the world of committing such shameful and cowardly acts in full view of countries and international organizations.
The office of the official spokesman for the army confirmed that the Sudanese Armed Forces do not carry out these cowardly acts and do not violate international law, but rather target the locations of these militias and this is their right to defend the entity of the Sudanese state.
