Rapid Support Forces (RSF), the paramilitary group at war with Sudan’s national army since April 15, 2023, has declared a parallel government in the country.

The announcement came after foreign ministers meeting in London failed to agree on the peace steps. However, the African Union fronted a demand that Sudan’s sovereignty and territorial integrity be respected.
