[HIGHLIGHTS] Will the Darfur movements succeed in tipping the balance in favor of the Sudanese army?

After months of neutrality, Sudanese armed movements took a position on the war and chose to fight alongside the army. Analysts believe that “the Rapid Support Forces’ rebellion and committing terrible violations” gave the movements a justification to declare their support for theArmy.

The head of the Sudan Liberation Movement, Minni Arko Minawi, led a huge force from the Nile River state in the north of the country to the Wadi Sidna military region in Omdurman, announcing participation in the upcoming battles.
