The Joint Force of the Armed Struggle Movements stated that the Rapid Support Forces (RSF)’s repeated claims about the fall of the city of El Fasher are part of a psychological and media warfare campaign. It emphasized that the RSF is going through an unprecedented phase of military weakness after suffering continuous defeats in El Fasher.
Colonel Ahmed Hussein Mustafa, the official spokesperson for the Joint Force, told Ultra Sudan that what happened to the RSF in El Fasher over the past three days is “unprecedented,” noting that they were heavily defeated following the intervention of warplanes in recent battles.
He added, “The talk about the militia’s control over El Fasher is completely false,” and continued: “Even if the city were evacuated for them, the militia would not be able to enter it,” as he put it.
Mustafa stressed that the situation is under control and that El Fasher is secure and will remain a defensive shield against all attacks. He mocked the Al-Hadi Idris Movement’s rejection of the United Nations’ call to deliver aid to El Fasher, saying such a stance contradicts both humanitarian and revolutionary values.
He denied Idris’s claims that El Fasher is empty of civilians, confirming that people are still in the city. He explained that those who fled were residents from western areas of El Fasher, after the RSF burned more than 100 villages in an attempt to tighten the siege on the city — a strategy, he said, that “will not bring them victory.”
The Joint Force’s spokesperson vowed that the RSF and its allied movements would soon be defeated, affirming their determination to eliminate the RSF and foreign mercenaries from Sudanese soil.
