Highlights of Hemedti’s speech

Ali Ahmed

Let the interpreters interpret and the analysts analyze as they please, but the most recent speech of the Rapid Support Forces Commander, 1st Lt. Gen. Mohamed Hamdan Daglo “Hemedti”, was unprecedented. Not because he talked about the advancement and retreat in the “Jebel Moya” operation, as this is a normal happenstance in wars and military operations, and only the remnants and Balabsa who are looking for “anything” to celebrate pay attention to.

So, what is the most important aspect in “Hemedti’s” speech ? He clearly and explicitly revealed what everyone knows, what even the Islamists and Balabsa rejoice and cheer for, which is Egypt’s Involvement in the war, and even its participation in destroying Sudan and the dreams of the Sudanese people before the war, by contributing to the plot of the October 25th, 2021 coup that hindered the democratic transition process. As well as its participation in planning for the war, which is what Hemedti didn’t say, but rather hinted at by saying that the Islamist battalions had been training to prepare for war (Urban Warfare) outside Sudan since (2019), and he meant Egypt. On a later date, we will revise the details of them using the pretext of achieving the revolution’s goals! It is the great Egyptian plot!

Hemedti stated that the Egyptian Air Force participated effectively against his forces in the Battle of Jebel Moya, through continuous air strikes, and he indicated that the same Egyptian Air Force participated in killing soldiers from the Rapid Support Forces, as it bombed a camp for deployment to Yemen and Saudi Arabia as part of the Coalition Forces on April 15th, 2023.

The Rapid Support Forces Commander’s direct accusations against the Egyptian Air Force for participating in the war against his forces aren’t just idle or arbitrary statements, as the political analysts would like to believe, but they rather have consequences. The man is known for “following his words with actions”, and it seems that Egypt has become one of the parties to the Sudanese war, and this has subsequent repercussions.

Hemedti stated: “We kept silent for a long time about Egypt’s role in the war, but it went too far and interfered in the battle in such a blatant manner,” revealing that Egypt had supplied the Brotherhood militias, metaphorically called the Sudanese Army, with American bombs, and that he had previously informed US Assistant Secretary of State (Molly) of the matter more than a year ago.

He pointed out that Egypt had given Al-Burhan, during the Geneva negotiations, (K8) aircrafts equipped with American engines. He stated that mercenaries from Azerbaijan, Ukraine, the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (Ethiopia), the Eritrean People’s Liberation Front, and Iran are fighting alongside the Army.

However, the war will remain a matter of advancement and retreat (we have liberated Jebel Moya before and didn’t celebrate, and now we will start implementing Plan B, by preparing a million soldiers). He informed his officers and soldiers on leave to immediately report to their units. What does that mean ? It means that a new chapter, more fierce and powerful, will begin, and that the tactics and plans of the Rapid Support Forces will change drastically according to these developments and the wide foreign participation in the war.

In regards to the domestic front, Hemedti accused the Muslim Brotherhood Movement and its National Congress Party of having complete control over the Army, and that they are seeking to replace the Army with the Operations Authority, which is one of the group’s militias overseeing the battle.

Hemedti revealed in his speech that the so-called Popular Resistance is nothing but a militia affiliated with the Islamic Movement that committed the massacre of the sit-in dispersal, which was carried out under the directives of the Army Commander-in-Chief himself.

The evidence was hidden in the headquarters of the Seventh Infantry Division and the Reconnaissance Division within the General Command, under the directives of Al-Burhan.

The Commander of the Rapid Support Forces confirmed that what happened on April 15th, 2023 was nothing but a coup by the Islamic Movement, plunging the country into absolute chaos, for they released habitual criminals from every prison in the country in one hour. He denied that his forces had any connection to the thieves who steal public and private property, stressing that they are fighting them relentlessly.

Hemedti mentioned one more important matter -that we will revise in another article in more detail- and most analysts missed, regarding Al-Baraa Ibn Malik Brigades receiving military training abroad, and that the Brigade’s prisoners held by his forces recorded confessions to corporate that claim.

The Commander of the Rapid Support Forces reviewed numerous matters and details in his speech, these were the most important. But we can summarize the gist of his speech in his saying “Cauterization and raw Garad”, meaning that a phase of the war has ended, and we are now on the threshold of a new phase, longer and more ferocious, that what is coming will be a blazing fire, and the war will expand to other places in the country that were safe during the previous year. War isn’t all evil, if you only knew. May God defeat the National Congress Party and protect Sudan.
