Maj. Gen.

Fayez al-Duwairi said that the Sudanese army's resolution of its confrontations with the Rapid Support Forces militarily is possible, but it needs to reformulate the military approach in a different way. He added that the army was unable to impose total control over the scene due to political considerations, including holding 6 truces whose reality was closer to calm. A city the size of Khartoum needs months or even years to resolve the battle, he said.
