The Health Ministry of the Peace Government (TASIS) on Monday accused doctors linked to the Muslim Brotherhood of carrying out serious medical violations during fighting in Khartoum and Al Jazira, including amputations without medical justification and infecting Rapid Support Forces (RSF) soldiers with hepatitis C.
In a statement issued from Nyala, the ministry said remarks by SAF chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan had reinforced longstanding allegations circulating in medical and media circles regarding the conduct of some doctors operating in areas previously under RSF control.
“The statements exposed the moral and professional decline of doctors affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood and their army,” the ministry said, adding that such practices contradict the ethical standards of the medical profession.
The ministry said reports had previously emerged alleging that some medical personnel carried out amputations without necessity and administered contaminated blood infected with hepatitis C. These claims had earlier been rejected by parts of the medical community, which cited professional ethics and the historical role of Sudanese doctors in resisting political manipulation.
The statement also accused certain medical bodies of issuing “misleading and fabricated reports” in support of General al-Burhan’s SAF, citing the Sudan Doctors Network as an example.
Despite the accusations, the ministry praised the broader medical community, saying most healthcare workers had continued to operate under difficult wartime conditions while adhering to humanitarian principles.
It said it would continue working with medical staff to provide healthcare services “without discrimination” in all accessible areas.
