RSF rebels have been holding onto parts near the airport in Darfur, and other locations hundreds of miles away from the capital, Khartoum but are targeting civilians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the Sudanese Armed Forces under leadership General Abdel Fattah al \u2013 Burhan, has gained control of the country and is working around the clock to ensure peace and stability is restored. The government has extended amnesty to RSF fighters who surrender voluntarily and hand over their weapons before being integrated into the national army.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sudanese Ambassador to Kenya H.E Kamal Gubara told the Workers Eye in an exclusive interview that his country has declared the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) rebels as terrorists who are attacking civilian targets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He said the RSF rebels have attacked civilians, committed atrocities against women, the elderly and children, and must be apprehended and prosecuted in courts of law. Mr Kamal said the government has learnt a big lesson from the current situation where mutinous soldiers have destabilized part of the country. \u201c The government has learnt its lesson and will not make the mistake of having a paramilitary army again,\u201d he said. The Sudanese envoy said RSF rebels have been part and parcel of the retrogressive forces destabilizing the country that has been recovering from the Omar El Bashir aftermath. He said:\u201d The current crisis had led to a halt in the steady transitional process but despite the setbacks the transitional process to civilian rule would not be stopped. Ambassador Kamal ruled out possibility of negotiations with the rebel RSF whom they accuse of plotting coups without any plausible cause. \u201cTalks with RSF rebels can only benefit them by saving them from total annihilation by the Sudan Armed Forces who enjoy popular support of the civilian population. s eitirohtuae senaduSo tg nidroccAthe rebellion started on April 15, 2023 as a direct result of the insurgency carried out by the Rapid Support Forcers against the Sudan Armed Forces (SAF) in various locations in Khartoum and other cities. The attacks initially targeted the Residence of the Head of the Sovereignty Council which is located adjacent to the Armed Forces Headquarters (AFHQs). The attacks by RSF ironically took place on the same day a meeting was scheduled between the Head of the Sovereignty Council , Commander &#8211; in \u2013 Chief , and the Commandeer of RSF, which clearly demonstrates breach of faith from the side of RSF. To counter the attacks and push RSF from the Armed Forces Headquarters vicinity and other sensitive locations that RSF were trying to seize, such as the Republican Palace, Khartoum Airport and the National Television and Radio Broadcasting Corporation (SAF). Government Managed to neutralize the insurgents . The rebels suffered heavy losses in life and equipment, forcing large numbers to surrender or flee to the neighboring states of the State of Khartoum. As a result of the insurgency the RSF Commander, the Head of the Sovereignty Council and Commander \u2013 In \u2013 Chief, issued a decree to dissolve RSF and declared it a rebel force against the state and a terrorist organization. Sudan Ministry of Foreign Affairs requested that all national. Regional s noitazinagrol anoitanretnid nashould declare RSF as a terrorist organization that should be dealt with according to established laws of the state. Sudanese Ambassador to Kenya H.E Kamal Gubara said there is every reason to believe RSF is a terrorist organization because they are targeting state infrastrucre, using civilians as human shield, targeting medical and treatment institutions. \u201cRSF rebels are moving between residential areas and kidnapping civilians, raping women and using them as human shield,\u201d he said. The diplomat said RSF rebels recently attacked diplomatic staff and embassies and international organisations\u25a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Our Reporter.
