Burhan added that the Rapid Support Forces are the ones who attacked the army headquarters in the guest house, which is the residence of the President of the Sovereignty Council, and the same spokesman expressed his surprise by attacking the Rapid Support his home at nine in the morning (Sudan time), and the Chairman of the Sovereignty Council of the island added that the Rapid Support Forces harassed the army in the Sports City area south of the capital Khartoum, which sparked clashes today.
According to the head of the Sovereignty Council in Sudan, the Rapid Support Forces infiltrated Khartoum airport through the Hajj and Umrah hall, noting that they burned some planes, adding that the armed forces dealt with the Rapid Support elements at the airport.
Al-Burhan confirmed that no one was able to enter the General Command of the Sudanese army, and that all strategic facilities from the army command and the Republican Palace are under control, in response to the announcement of the Rapid Support Command that it took control of the guest house, the Republican Palace and the airports of Khartoum and Meroe.
