In a celebratory telegram, Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Mohamed Osman Al-Hussein hailed the achievement as an "important victory" and a "difficult stage overcome."
The Sudanese leader Abdel Fattah al-Burhan visited the north of the city, where he was briefed on the progress of the operations and praised the forces for their achievements on the ground, the army said in a statement.
