The Rapid Support Forces (RSF) denied accusations that it bombed a hospital in Sudan’s White Nile State, rejecting the claims as false and politically motivated.
In a statement released late Thursday, the RSF accused Muslim Brotherhood-aligned General Abdel Fattah al Burhan’s army and affiliated media outlets of spreading fabricated allegations.
The RSF said reports alleging its involvement in the Jabalain hospital incident were designed to mislead public opinion during Sudan’s escalating conflict.
According to the statement, the incident formed part of a staged scenario allegedly prepared by army-linked elements operating in southern White Nile State.
The group claimed the accusations reflected a desperate attempt to damage its image while diverting attention from alleged violations committed by rival forces.
RSF officials categorically denied targeting civilian infrastructure and said their forces had no role in any attack on medical facilities in the area.
The statement placed full responsibility for the incident on what it called the Muslim Brotherhood’s army and associated militias, framing the dispute as an organised smear campaign.
It accused opposing factions of exploiting civilian suffering for propaganda purposes, describing the information battle as parallel to the military confrontation on the ground.
The RSF also urged media organisations to exercise caution and independently verify claims before publication, warning against amplifying unconfirmed narratives.
It said repeating inaccurate reports risks misleading audiences and contributing to confusion amid an already volatile humanitarian and security crisis.
