Sudanese Army Recaptures Key Town in South Kordofan

The Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) have retaken control of the strategic town of Al-Abbasiya in South Kordofan state. This follows intense clashes with forces allied to their rival, the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF). Military sources confirm the SAF now controls all territory west of Al-Abbasiya Tagali. The town is a significant logistical hub in a region that has seen persistent conflict. The recapture marks a notable advance for the army in this part of Sudan. It comes amid the wider, ongoing civil war between the SAF and the RSF that has devastated the country for over a year. Neither side has released details on casualties from the recent fighting. The shift in control could impact supply lines and the broader military situation in South Kordofan.
