June 20, 2024 (GEDAREF) – Amidst the ongoing conflict in Sudan, authorities in Gederaf state bordering Ethiopia have apprehended six Ethiopian women accused of serving as snipers for the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). This development further substantiates claims by the Sudanese military that foreign nationals are being recruited as mercenaries. Their alleged involvement in operations against the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and security agencies is supported by images of military engagements and weaponry found on their phones. These arrests follow earlier reports of captured South Sudanese nationals fighting alongside the RSF. Also, a video released by the SRF fighters after the capture of El-Fula shows an Ethiopian raising the flag of their country.
