The army has recently welcomed many residents of these areas, as the RSF has been widely accused of killing and abusing civilians in Khartoum, as well as the city. Along with returning the homes of many residents who escaped.
Army advance reports have been rejected by the RSF as “lies and rumors”. In recent weeks, he has denied similarly before every retreat.
Recent military achievements have been the result of joining the list of more fighters and buying more weapons, analysts say. It was also a great honor to return to the headquarters of the detained army earlier this month.
The ousting of the army’s paramilitary group from the central city of Wood Madani in January is considered by RSF informants or colleagues that they were accused of allegations of summary executions and discretionary attacks.
There is no doubt that some Khartoum residents will fear that the same luck is waiting for them.
Mustafa told the BBC, “When you open social media and you see all the killings, you should be upset if you have committed something wrong.”
“Some of them led fighters in people’s homes. Others joined [the RSF] And stolen property, terrorized people – even women hold against their will [as sex slaves, external]. They did terrible things.
“Are they afraid that what are coming? Of course
But sometimes there is a good line between being seen as a partner and the reality of survival in the war.
“I’m worried for my cousin,” says Aamir, who lives in the twin cities of Khartoum Omdurman, which is located across the Nile River.
“He is not a partner or an informant – he often has to deal with these people [the RSF] Because he is taking care of his mother and his children. Will he be slaughtered? [by the army] Or will he be alone? “
For now, as the army is approaching and the future of Sudan is in balance, Mustafa and Aamir can wait for what they can do.
