Sudan’s Rapid Support Forces (RSF) leader Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, said on Tuesday that General al-Burhan’s forces (SAF) has used chemical weapons in attacks on multiple towns and cities, causing widespread contamination of water sources.
In a speech to RSF fighters and the Sudanese people, Dagalo said physical evidence supported the accusations of chemical barrel bombs. He also said Egypt’s military support for General al-Burhan’s (SAF) continued, alleging that drones and 32 truckloads of supplies had recently arrived.
On the humanitarian front, Dagalo pledged to build “medical cities” to treat war-wounded civilians, while sharply criticizing what he called “mercenaries” from armed movements fighting alongside the SAF, claiming they were “humiliated even when seeking medical care.”
Dagalo vowed the RSF would not back down, describing the conflict as a clear choice between “with us or against us,” and calling for the “total eradication of the cancer.”
He said RSF forces had destroyed 70% of the SAF’s “Sayyad” combat unit, a core fighting force, and urged his fighters to complete the “liberation” of remaining areas in Kordofan.
Recent battles in the towns of Al-Khuwei and Dibeibat were described as a “great victory,” with Dagalo saying the SAF’s “Sayyad” operation involved heavily armed troops and foreign support, including “ISIS elements.”
He also vowed to target other areas and added that “ISIS-affiliated forces” had regrouped in the city of al Obeid, promising military action to prevent their advance.
Dagalo reassured civilians in Sudan’s Northern State that RSF forces would not harm innocent people, while warning those supporting “terrorist army leaders and politicians,” specifically naming figures like Ali Karti, Ahmed Haroun, and Osama Abdullah.
RSF chief said those backing the SAF and its allies were “legitimate targets” and that RSF had lists of individuals fueling the war from within Sudan’s Islamic Movement.
