Khartoum: The Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) on Sunday said more than 100 fighters from the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) were killed and dozens of others injured during operations in the capital Khartoum on Saturday.

“Yesterday (Saturday), our forces carried out a number of qualitative operations in the capital,” during which a number of RSF combat vehicles were also destroyed, said the SAF in a statement.

Sudan has been embroiled in a deadly conflict between the SAF and the RSF since mid-April 2023, which has so far claimed at least 16,650 lives, according to an update from the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs last month.

Over 7.7 million people have been displaced internally within Sudan since the outbreak of the conflict, while about 2.2 million others have crossed borders into neighboring countries, according to the figures released on June 25 by the UN International Organization for Migration.
