RSF says it killed 260 Sudanese soldiers
KHARTOUM, Sudan (AA) – The Rapid Support Forces (RSF) said Monday that they killed 260 soldiers of the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF).
The RSF said in a statement that it also captured part of an SAF tank unit in southern Khartoum and seized tanks and military vehicles.
“Our forces have made a great breakthrough in the battles today around the SAF tank unit in the Al Shagara neighborhood (of Khartoum) and seized a lot of weapons and killed 260 from the enemy forces and arrested hundreds of others,” it said.
However, the SAF denied the claims, saying that the army’s special forces repulsed an attack by the RSF on the tank unit.
“Our forces have repulsed a failed attempt of attack by the RSF. An SAF special unit has defeated the RSF and is still tracking them and inspecting the neighborhoods around the tank unit,” it said in a statement on social media.
Eyewitnesses said there were aggressive battles Monday between the two sides in southern Khartoum and Omdurman with intensive airstrikes, bombings and drone strikes.
