They confirmed the deaths of more than (470 members) of SAF and its allied militias, seizing dozens of fully equipped combat vehicles in the process, and assuming full control over large weapons depots, stocked with modern drones and weapons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s9\">Assayha&nbsp;publishes the Rapid Support Forces statement:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s9\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s9\">In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful and Compassionate&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s9\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s9\">Rapid Support Forces<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s9\">Media Statement<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s9\">July 13th, 2025<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s9\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s9\">On Sunday, the warplanes of the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF), operating under the command of the Islamic Terrorist Movement, launched a brutal aerial bombardment on residential neighborhoods in the city of Al-Fula, West Kordofan. The attack used indiscriminate barrel bombs. It claimed the lives of dozens of innocent civilians and left many more wounded, among them are children, women, and the elderly, in a horrific crime added to the record of genocidal crimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s9\">The treacherous aggression is part of a systematic campaign of repeated attacks that have devastated the cities of Bara, Al-Nuhud, Al-Khoi, Al-Muglad, Al-Fula, and Abu Zabad. The most recent of these heinous assaults targeted shelters for displaced civilians in Abu Zabad, resulting in hundreds of victims.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s9\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s9\">We affirm that these crimes constitute a blatant violation of international humanitarian law and reflect the deliberate, systematic targeting of civilians based on ethnic and regional identity that amounts to crimes against humanity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s9\">We call on the international community and human rights organizations to take immediate and decisive action to hold accountable all those responsible for these heinous crimes. We also urge the families of the victims and relevant legal bodies to pursue justice by prosecuting the perpetrators in Port Sudan and the leadership of the Islamic Terrorist Movement organization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s9\">We reaffirm our firm commitment to defend our people and their right to freedom and dignity, until the criminal gang of murderers and terrorists is overthrown, and to restore the independent national decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s9\">Mercy and forgiveness be upon our righteous martyrs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s9\">Office of the Official Spokesman&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s9\">Rapid Support Forces<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Rapid Support Forces (RSF) announced, on Sunday, that they had achieved decisive victories over the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and its allied militias in the strategic area of Umm&nbsp;Samima, west of El-Obeid, North Kordofan state.
