Sudan's Army Declares Commitment to Civilian Rule Amid Clashes With RSF
The military statement came amid ongoing clashes between the army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) that have left around 600 people dead, according to Sudan’s Health Ministry.
The Sudan Armed Forces
said on its official Facebook page on Saturday that it is committed to Sudan's political process, that leads to civilian rule in the country.
According to the army's brief statement, it will not be "a lever for any entity, party or group to seize power."
“The Sudanese Armed Forces are committed to the political process that leads to the establishment of a civilian authority,” the statement added.
In their statement,
Sudan's Army described the operational situation as "stable in all military districts of the country" and pointed to the involvement of insurgents in crimes against property.
"As part of the insurgents' continued approach to vandalism and looting of public and private property, they looted the Bank of Khartoum branches in the neighborhoods Soba East and Juraif Gharb, and broke into and looted the Bank of Khartoum branch on Al-Ardah Street, in addition to looting a large number of stores in Bahri [city in the north of Sudan] all the way to the central station," read a statement.
The Sudanese army also appealed to the rebels, urging them to surrender.
"Fleeing operations continue among the insurgents, and the General Command is again appealing to the rebels to distance themselves from participation in the insurgency and report to the nearest military unit in all regions and divisions to take advantage of the Commander-in-Chief's decisions to pardon and join the armed forces," the statement added.
On April 15, violent clashes
broke out between the Sudanese regular armed forces and the RSF paramilitary group, with the epicenter located in Khartoum. The parties have introduced a number of temporary nationwide ceasefires since then, but the conflict has not been settled yet. On Thursday, the sides agreed to extend the current ceasefire for another 72 hours.
