SAF Gains Control of Villages in West Kordofan, Weakening RSF Allies
What happened
The Sudanese Armed Forces gained control over several strategically important villages in west Kordofan, including al-Khuwai, shifting the war against the Rapid Support Forces in the resource-rich state. The SAF offensive also broke the RSF siege on al-Obeid in North Kordofan and opened new routes in central and southwest Sudan. The RSF, alongside alleged allies led by Abdelaziz al-Hilu, still controls al-Nuhud and parts of South Kordofan.
