KHARTOUM /ISTANBUL (AA) - Sudan’s Sovereign Council Chairman Abdel Fattah al-Burhan Wednesday arrived at the presidential palace in the capital late Wednesday and declared Khartoum “free” after the expulsion of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) paramilitary forces.
“It’s over… Khartoum is free,” Al-Burhan, who is also the army’s commander, said at the presidential palace surrounded by dozens of soldiers, according to local media.
Earlier Wednesday, the Khartoum State Government’s official platform said on Facebook that Khartoum is free of RSF forces.
