RSF deploys ‘Special Forces’ to tighten security in Nyala

Sudan’s Rapid Support Forces have deployed specialised internal security units to Nyala, escalating law enforcement operations across the South Darfur capital.

The fighting force announced the deployment of dedicated “Special Forces” to reinforce public order amid growing instability in the region.

Intensified security campaigns now sweep through key neighbourhoods, targeting localised threats and consolidating control over the strategic city.

The move marks a sharp escalation in RSF oversight, signalling a firm clampdown on internal security challenges within South Darfur.

Residents report an overwhelming military presence across main thoroughfares, as armed checkpoints restrict movement throughout the urban centre.

Local leaders express deep concern that heightened patrols could trigger further disruption for civilians already caught in regional turmoil.

The command stated these measures aim to stabilise the municipality, though tensions remain acutely high across the surrounding territory.
