Military sources informed Al Arabiya and Al Hadath channels that the Sudanese army has begun to carry out qualitative operations through reconnaissance and offensive teams in the outskirts of the Um Kraidim area, which forms a vital connection point between North Kordofan and its west.

The sources clarified that the army forces have initiated a field movement to tighten control over the area through qualitative operations, in preparation for advancing towards West Kordofan, specifically the Al Khoy areas and the northern localities of Al Nuhud locality.

The spokesperson for the special forces in West Kordofan, Mohamed Didan, revealed to Al Arabiya and Al Hadath channels that their forces carried out a qualitative operation last night west of Al Mazrub, resulting in the destruction of 6 vehicles belonging to the Rapid Support Forces and the capture of more than 10 of its elements.

Um Kraidim is the last border point of North Kordofan with West Kordofan, where the army's control over it allows for a presence on the borders of the state, which represents the advanced line of defense for the Darfur region against the Rapid Support Forces.

In another context, the spokesperson for the joint forces, Mutawakkil, confirmed to the channels "Al-Arabiya" and "Al-Hadath" the killing of 23 citizens by the Rapid Support Forces in the Um Bader area of North Kordofan, describing it as a dangerous violation against civilians.

He affirmed that "the Rapid Support Forces seek to impose terror and fear on the citizens, which the state will not allow, as its forces continue efforts to establish sovereignty and rescue the residents from the intimidation operations carried out by the Rapid Support Forces against them."
