Urban combat between the RSF and the SAF in Omdurman, Khartoum

On 6 February, a pro-SAF channel posted a video to Telegram showing destroyed buildings and bodies on the ground. Sudan Witness observed four dead bodies in the video, two of which were wearing uniforms resembling that of the RSF. The other bodies appear to be wearing civilian clothing. The caption of the video reads “Omdurman, Al Arda Street, Al Tigany Al Mahi, case closed/cancelled” (امدرمان شارع العرضة التيجاني الماحي البلاغ مشطوب) in Arabic. Sudan Witness geolocated the footage to a location 0.45km north of the Al Tigany Al Mahi Mental Health Hospital in Omdurman (figure 2), as the distinctive yellow and orange coloured panel visible in the footage matches that of the Sudapost Office. The damaged building appears to either be part of or adjacent to the Nour Al-Iman Mosque in the Al Bosta ne ighbourhood.

People who fled from El Geneina, the capital of West Darfur, to Chad say that the city is “entirely obliterated” by armed men supported by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and that the security and humanitarian situation continues to deteriorate.
