RSF claim arrangements ‘complete’ for new government

The Rapid Support Forces (RSF), led by Mohammad Hamdan Daglo, announced the completion of arrangements to form its parallel “government of peace and unity” in areas of Sudan under their control, according to Asharq al-Awsat on March 8th.
They stressed that they will protect these regions from air strikes from the Sudanese army, led by Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, so that the new government will be able to carry out services to the people, including the printing of currency and issuing of passports.
The RSF also vowed to continue the fight against the army until it is defeated and until it liberates the Northern state, as well as the states of the River Nile, Red Sea and Kassala from “the Islamist movement,” which it accuses of controlling the army.
