Sudan’s conflict appears to be entering a critical phase as the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) expand their territorial control, while growing defections from the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) weaken its ranks. The military’s advances and internal fractures within the RSF suggest a potential turning point in the war, raising questions about the balance of power on the ground. Meanwhile, General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, head of the SAF, is intensifying his political maneuvering, signaling an effort to consolidate authority amid shifting battlefield dynamics. Observers are closely watching whether these developments could lead to a broader realignment in the conflict’s trajectory.
Army gains, RSF defections and al-Burhan’s political push point to a possible shift in Sudan’s war.
