Army Ambush Crushes Militia Column Attempting to Infiltrate Sodari
Field sources reported clashes between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF), Sudan Shield Forces, the Joint Forces, and supporting forces on one side and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) militia on the other, northwest of Sodri in North Kordofan State, following an attempted RSF infiltration toward the area.
A field source said a militia force moved through the desert from the direction of Darfur in an attempt to retake Sodri before being ambushed by the Sudan Shield Forces.
The source said the ambush targeted a convoy of combat vehicles, destroying it and resulting in the seizure of a number of weapons and ammunition.
The Sudanese Armed Forces announced on September 25 that it had recaptured Sodri from the Rapid Support Forces and deployed troops inside the town as part of ongoing military operations in the area.
