Sudan's army launches a counter-offensive against the RSF near Ethiopia
The Sudanese Armed Forces pushed to retake Kurmuk and nearby areas in Blue Nile state from the paramilitary RSF, which controls much of Darfur after seizing el-Fasher — a takeover a UN mission said bore 'hallmarks of genocide.'
The summary above is a neutral framing. Below, each side reports the same story in its own words — judge for yourself.
Pro-army coverage frames the offensive as the national military clawing back strategic territory from a rebellious paramilitary, retaking areas around Kurmuk on the Ethiopian border.
Reporting from the other side highlights the RSF's grip on Darfur and el-Fasher, mass detentions and atrocities the UN links to genocide — a humanitarian catastrophe that overshadows shifting battle lines.
