At dawn on Monday, the valiant Rapid Support Forces’ soldiers “Al-Ashaws” shot down, in the area of (Al-Malha), North Darfur state, a foreign warplane fighting alongside Al-Burhan’s militias and the remnants of the terrorist Islamic Movement. The entirety of its crew of foreign mercenaries are dead.
This foreign warplane carried out a large number of air sorties and dropped dozens of explosive barrels on innocent civilians in various cities of Sudan, especially (Al-Malha) area, where it was shot down while dropping barrels on women and children.
The valiant Rapid Support Forces’ soldiers “Al-Ashaws” documented videos and photos of the warplane wreckage after it was shot down, including that of the bodies of its crew; personal photos of them, their passports and other documents revealing their identities and the places they came from.
The foreign warplanes fighting alongside Al-Burhan’s militia, the Islamic Movement battalions and the Armed Movements’ mercenaries continued to target cities and villages, killing thousands of innocent women and children and destroying the infrastructure as well as citizens’ homes. Even peaceful villages without any military presence weren’t spared from the air strikes.

Our forces’ valiant soldiers “Al-Ashaws” are determined to resolve this battle in the interest of our people and to achieve their legitimate aspirations for security, stability, peace, freedom and democracy, to rebuild Sudan on new and just foundations.
