This past month was marked by a series of attempts by the #SAF to advance into south and west Kordofan. Attempt which initially seemed succesful but were later reversed by the #RSF, showing the war is still very far from being decided.

The past month was marked by a series of modest advances by the resistance. A number of junta camps were seized in the states of Karen, Bago, and further in the south. The resistance controls between 60-65% of the country.
A monumental shift in European relations with #Palestine π΅πΈ should this end up happening.
Sadly I think that the Netherlands will be among the last holdouts together with the US and Hungary that refuses to take such a step www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

As the SAF continues to advance in the city of Omdurman, the RSF is consolidating its control over Darfur and western Kordofan. Today the town of En-Nahud was seized, as the militants are stepping up their attacks on el-Fasher.
The situation in #Sudan πΈπ© after two years of war:
Today marks the 2nd anniversary of the war, and after two years of fighting the front is anything but frozen:
-SAF captured Khartoum, Bahri
-RSF launched a new offensive in Darfur
-RSF and SPLM-N launched joint attacks in Kordofan & Blue Nile
Portraits of Druze spiritual leader Sheikh Hikmat al-Hijri, and a flag of the recently formed Suwayda Military Council are now also being featured more prominently on the square. But Druze flags still wave alongside Syrian flags.
#Syria.

The torch that carried anti-Assad protests in 2023-24, but now finds itself at odds with the new government over regional governance, Druze representation and worries about extremist factions.
