Cracks are widening within General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan’s army as tensions grow between the leadership and its allied Joint Forces.
Burhan has reportedly stopped holding direct meetings with the forces and suspended key financial allocations.
The rift is also being fuelled by political manoeuvring, with rebel leader Minni Arko Minawi seeking new local and international alliances beyond the army’s control.
Military officials have blamed the growing tensions on serious misconduct and the allied fighters’ refusal to follow strategic redeployment orders.
Nearly 200 combat vehicles suddenly withdrew from the northern front, highlighting a serious operational breakdown within the fragile wartime coalition.
Pressure is mounting on Minawi as SAF establishment moves to tighten its control over key security and political decisions.
