STORYLINE:
The Sudanese army announced on Friday that it has broken the 21-month-long siege imposed by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) on the General Command headquarters in the capital of Khartoum.
"Our forces have completed the second phase of their operations on Friday when the forces of Bahri (city) axis linked up with our forces stationed at the General Command," the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) spokesperson's office said in a statement.
According to the statement, the army also succeeded in breaking the RSF siege on the Signals Corps headquarters located to the south of Bahri city, which lies just to the north of Khartoum.
Earlier on Friday, Sudanese Minister of Information Khalid Ali Aleisir announced in a statement that the SAF had achieved major victories in Khartoum.
The RSF had besieged the General Command of the Sudanese army since conflict broke out in mid-April 2023.
Located in the heart of Khartoum, the General Command comprises five main buildings including Army Headquarters, Navy Command, Air Force Headquarters, Military Intelligence, and the Ministry of Defense.
In a Friday statement, the RSF denied that the SAF had lifted the siege on the army headquarters or on the signal corps.
"The rumors about the army forces meeting at the signal corps and attempts to fabricate imaginary battles and achieve false victories by posting fake videos on social media are nothing but a chapter of lies," the statement said.
Sudan has been gripped by a devastating conflict between the SAF and the RSF since mid-April 2023. At least 27,000 lives have been claimed by the fighting and over 15 million people have been displaced either inside or outside of Sudan according to the latest international organization estimates.
