The leader of the Rapid Support Forces, Lt-Gen Mohamed Hamdan Daglo “Hemedti,” has accused Egypt of launching airstrikes against his forces, potentially roping Cairo into this 18-month conflict.
The Rapid Support Forces (RSF) has been fighting the Sudan Armed Forces (SAF) since April 2023, a war that has killed some 18,000 people displaced more than 11 million others. But the RSF have always been the ones accused by SAF of receiving armed support from the United Arab Emirates.
