Sudan Events \u2013 Agencies<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Sudanese army announced today (Wednesday) that its forces have evacuated the triangle area overlooking the borders between Sudan, Egypt, and Libya as part of “defensive arrangements,” while the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) declared their control over the area.<\/p>\n

In a statement on Telegram, the RSF said: \u201cThis morning, the Rapid Support Forces succeeded in liberating the strategic Triangle area, which constitutes a pivotal meeting point between Sudan, Libya, and Egypt\u2014a qualitative step that will have further implications across several combat fronts, especially in the northern desert.\u201d<\/p>\n

The RSF added that it had \u201cinflicted heavy losses on the Sudanese army in lives and equipment and seized dozens of combat vehicles.\u201d<\/p>\n

Yesterday, the Sudanese army accused the RSF and a Libyan military group of attacking army border posts in the triangle border area between Sudan, Egypt, and Libya.<\/p>\n

In a statement, the army said: \u201cIn a reprehensible and unprecedented move, and a blatant violation of international law, the Rapid Support Forces, backed by Khalifa Haftar\u2019s Libyan forces, attacked our border positions in the triangle area with the aim of seizing control.\u201d<\/p>\n

The army added that \u201cthe direct intervention of Khalifa Haftar\u2019s forces\u201d alongside the RSF represents \u201ca blatant assault on Sudan, its territory, and its people.\u201d<\/p>\n

Government Appointed by the Libyan Parliament<\/p>\n

For its part, the government appointed by the Libyan parliament issued a statement today affirming its non-involvement in the Sudanese conflict and expressing support for Sudan\u2019s stability, territorial integrity, and efforts to end the war.<\/p>\n

The Foreign Ministry of the parliament-appointed government reaffirmed its stance and that of the Libyan National Army in support of Sudan\u2019s unity, cessation of hostilities, and engagement in dialogue. It also expressed regret over what it called the \u201callegations by the Sudanese army\u201d regarding an attack by an armed Libyan group on its border positions.<\/p>\n

The statement added that the Libyan government is committed to \u201cpreserving national security and sovereignty by all legitimate means.\u201d<\/p>\n

Earlier today, the Sudanese army announced that its forces had withdrawn from the triangle area on the borders between Sudan, Egypt, and Libya as part of \u201cdefensive arrangements,\u201d coinciding with the RSF\u2019s announcement of control over the area.<\/p>\n

The army stated on Wednesday that it had withdrawn from the border triangle area between Libya, Egypt, and Sudan, a day after accusing forces loyal to Khalifa Haftar, commander of the Libyan National Army (East Libya forces), of launching an attack alongside the RSF.<\/p>\n

Sudanese soldiers\u2014many of them from former rebel groups now aligned with the army\u2014had previously patrolled the area. The Sudanese army accuses the RSF and Haftar\u2019s forces of using the region to transport weapons.<\/p>\n

The area is near El Fasher, one of the main frontlines in the ongoing civil war between the Sudanese army and the RSF.<\/p>\n

In a statement, the Sudanese army said: \u201cAs part of its defensive arrangements to repel aggression, our forces today evacuated the triangle area overlooking the borders between Sudan, Egypt, and Libya,\u201d without providing further details.<\/p>\n

Late Tuesday night, Haftar\u2019s forces denied involvement in a cross-border attack, stating that forces allied with the Sudanese army had attacked Libyan patrols instead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
