Sudanese army reports first defection of senior RSF commanderSudan’s army said on Sunday a commander from its foe the Rapid Support Forces had defected with some of his troops, the first such move by a senior figure since the two sides went to war more than 18 months ago. Supporters of the army posted photos online purporting to show Abuagla Keikal – a former army officer who became the RSF’s top commander in the southeastern state of El Gezira – after he had defected. The army, which has recently reported gains against the RSF in parts of the capital, said Keikal had decided to make the move because of the RSF’s “destructive agenda”. There was no immediate comment from Keikal, who was a military intelligence officer before the war.

The government said its actions were justified by the gravity of the threat posed to the state by the coup.
