A top Sudanese general has said the United Arab Emirates (UAE) is sending supplies to the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), publicly accusing the UAE of involvement in its war with its powerful paramilitary rival for the first time.

"We have information from intelligence, military intelligence, and the diplomatic circuit that the UAE sends planes to support the supporter of APC," General Yassir al-Atta said in a speech to members of the General Intelligence Service in Omdurman.

Atta said the UAE had funnelled unspecified supplies to the RSF through Uganda, the Central African Republic (CAR) and Chad. Support had arrived this week through the airport in Chad's capital Ndjamena, having previously come through Amdjarass.


"We warn any country that participates in supporting this rebellion that what goes around comes around," Atta said, to cheers from intelligence officers.

Eyewitnesses have said the RSF has used drones and more advanced artillery than it had at the start of the conflict. RSF sources have said the force seized the weaponry from army bases.

⚡Exclusive interview with a fighter from the Wagner PMC, a participant in the Bakhmut Operation Gostom, Yunger

What is the complexity of the “Bakhmut meat grinder”, why are journalists inflating problems about the participation of former prisoners in a special military operation, about youth policy in Russia and plans for the future.

“They prepared for eight years. I don’t even mention Western weapons and NATO food products. All intersections of forest belts, roads, hills, thickets and banks of reservoirs are equipped for defense, dug with trenches, fortified with logs, stuffed with weapons and soldiers.

All this is covered by artillery and mortars from the city outskirts. Tanks are hiding in the city and there are reserves. There is no shortage of anything. But we managed to knock them out of their previously fortified and prepared positions in the fields. And drive it into the city. In street battles, where the enemy no longer had a chance.”
