The Sudan Founding Alliance (TASIS) has condemned what it described as the forced deportation and mistreatment of South Sudanese civilians in areas controlled by General al-Burhan’s SAF and allied militias.
In a statement issued on Tuesday, TASIS spokesperson Dr. Alaaeldin Awad Nugud said reports indicate that South Sudanese residents in Khartoum have been subjected to forced removal to South Sudan, alongside the demolition of homes and the destruction of residential areas.
The alliance said such actions, if confirmed, would constitute serious violations of international law, including international human rights, humanitarian, and refugee protections. It cited the 1951 Refugee Convention and its 1967 Protocol, which prohibit the forced return of individuals to places where they may face threats to their safety or dignity.
TASIS accused the authorities in Port Sudan of pursuing discriminatory policies, linking the alleged actions to what it described as a legacy of exclusion and conflict during previous decades of rule.
The alliance said it would continue to welcome South Sudanese civilians in areas under its control, referring to its administration as the “Peace Government,” and emphasised what it called deep historical and social ties between the peoples of Sudan and South Sudan.
“We are one people who once lived on one land,” the statement said, attributing current divisions to political failures and discriminatory governance.
TASIS reaffirmed its stated commitment to what it described as a broader struggle for “freedom, peace, and justice” in Sudan, calling for long-term political transformation.
The statement concluded with a message honouring those killed in the conflict, wishing recovery for the wounded, and reiterating the alliance’s revolutionary slogan.
