Sudan’s paramilitary forces declare a rival government

Sudan’s paramilitary Rapid Support Forces have declared the establishment of a rival government, two years after the country descended into civil war.

Marked as the world’s “worst humanitarian crisis” by the United Nations, the RSF established the “Government of Peace and Unity” on April 15^th, reported by Al Jazeera the same day.

The move directly challenges the army-led administration run by General al-Burhan and signals a renewed effort by paramilitary forces to undermine their rival government.
