Armed conflict in Sudan
The armed confrontation between the army of Sudan and the SBR began on April 15 last year. The reason for the clashes was the issue of integration of the SBR into the structure of the army.
The fighting that began in the capital soon covered other units of the country.
The Sudan government called on the international community to declare the SBR “terrorist grouping”.
