The fighting that erupted in Sudan on April 15 between the Rapid Support Forces and the Sudanese Armed Forces continues unabated.
The conflict represents a power struggle between two men who were once allies: Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, widely known as Hemedti, who is the leader of the RSF, a battle-hardened paramilitary force with origins in the genocidaire Janjaweed of the Darfur conflict, and the leader of Sudan’s military junta, Abdel Fattah al-Burhan.
