Sudanese paramilitary group, Rapid Support Forces (RSF), claimed control of the Presidential Palace on Wednesday, March 15, 2023. This announcement comes after reports of gunfire and clashes between the RSF and Sudan Armed Forces (SAF) in the capital city of Khartoum. The situation has raised concerns that the standoff could escalate into a civil war.

The RSF is a controversial paramilitary group that previously worked alongside government forces in the Darfur conflict. However, in recent years, it has been accused of targeting civilians and committing human rights abuses.

Sudanese citizens are worried about the RSF’s mobilization, and many fear for their safety. Reports suggest that the RSF may attempt to consolidate its power and control other parts of the country.

The international community has expressed concern over the situation in Sudan, with the United Nations calling for an immediate end to the violence and a peaceful resolution to the crisis. Meanwhile, Sudanese officials have been urging citizens to remain calm and have promised to resolve the situation as soon as possible.

The current situation in Sudan is unstable, and it remains to be seen how events will unfold in the coming days. The RSF’s seizure of the Presidential Palace is a major development in the crisis, and many are watching closely to see how the situation will be resolved.
