El-fashir: The 6th Infantry Division in El-Fashir, supported by the Joint Force, Police, General Intelligence Service, Resistance Youth, support groups, and mobilized volunteers, successfully repelled the 239th violent attack launched Tuesday by the terrorist rebel Rapid Support Forces (RSF) militia on the city.
According to Sudan News Agency, the attack involved 40 combat vehicles, armored carriers, and infantry advancing from the northern and northeastern axes. The battle, which lasted from 9:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m., inflicted heavy losses on the militia in both equipment and personnel. Dozens were killed, including five members of the medical team, while two young women from the medical staff miraculously survived and others were injured.
A large number of combat vehicles were destroyed, and the remaining militia elements fled southwest of the city. In a press statement, the 6th Infantry Division confirmed that its forces had returned to their positions raising the banners of victory with high morale amid chants of ‘Allahu Akbar’ in the ‘Shanb Al-Asad’ axis of El-Fashir.
The statement added that the Sudanese Armed Forces and supporting units had achieved three decisive victories during this week, which spread fear among the militia and accelerated its collapse. The 6th Division prayed for mercy upon the martyrs, speedy recovery for the wounded, and the safe return of prisoners and missing personnel.
It reassured the Sudanese people and the residents of North Darfur that the situation remains fully under the control of the Armed Forces and their supporting units, calling on the public not to heed rumors and affirming that victory is imminent, with the grace and willing of Allah.
The Division also highlighted the continuation of humanitarian support in El-Fashir, noting that the city’s communal kitchens are still providing meals to citizens in shelter centers, with support from the state government and the National Cooperative Corporation, under the supervision of the 6th Infantry Division, along with contributions from benevolent Sudanese.
