Retaliatory and Selective strikes

On Monday, the Sudanese army Air Force launched aerial strikes with explosive barrels on the cities of Er-Rahad and Umm Ruwaba in North Kordofan, which led to a number of casualties and injuries in addition to the demolition of homes.

Citizens of Er-Rahad and Umm Ruwaba told “Assayha” that Army aircrafts bombed densely populated areas in the early hours of Monday morning, and launched a number of explosive barrels, noting that the wounded were transferred to Er-Rahad Hospital.

Eyewitnesses indicated that the aerial bombardment destroyed a number of citizens’ homes within residential neighborhoods in the cities of Er-Rahad and Umm Ruwaba.

The Rapid Support Forces announced their solidarity with the victims of the treacherous aerial bombardment on the cities of Er-Rahad and Umm Ruwaba in North Kordofan state, through random air strikes targeting residential neighborhoods and public facilities, in an attempt to terrorize defenseless citizens.

The Rapid Support Forces shared in a statement: “Al-Burhan’s militia, members of the terrorist organization, and the dissolved National Congress Party’s Brigades resorted to committing acts of revenge in a selective and systematic manner. The terrorist planes continued to drop explosive barrels on citizens’ homes, taking the lives of hundreds of children, women and elderly people, falling victims to the “Kizani” Air Force’s aggression in Darfur, Kordofan, Al-Jazeera, as well as areas in the White Nile, which clearly indicates the nature of the selective retaliatory aggression.”

The forces described the aerial bombardment on the cities of Er-Rahad and Umm Ruwaba as a “rather savage and barbaric behavior” committed by Al-Burhan’s militia and terrorist groups, which ceased control of the Armed Forces to utilize it in oppressing the people and destroying them through wars and conspiracies.

The Rapid Support Forces stressed that all crimes committed against our people have been monitored and documented, for they represent war crimes and crimes against humanity, and it is inevitable that the mob will bear the consequences, legally and morally.
