Sudan’s army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan arrived at Khartoum’s presidential palace on Wednesday, declaring the capital « free » of the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces after nearly two years of war. « Khartoum is free, it’s done, » said Burhan, Sudan’s de facto leader, in a broadcast aired by state television, capping a multi-day campaign by his forces to recapture central Khartoum’s state institutions from paramilitary control. Naba Mohiedeen reports from Port Sudan.
