  1. Russian tactics in a nutshell :
    1. Send in the tanks anyway, with no infantry support.
    2.Tanks blown up.
    3. Send in the infantry after the tanks.
    4. Infantry killed.

    1. @I AM AVIK JORDAN it’s a layman’s view on Russia. They have plenty of video to back up their horrible tactics.

  2. She is distorting the truth! If anything, RSF has closer relations with the West than does the military junta of Sudan which by the way signed a military base agreement with Russia just a week ago!!

    The simple matter is, the greedy Junta generals of the Sudanese army and RSF should have handed power over to a civilian government long ago in order to avoid this disaster.

    1. Im pretty sure democratic countries have tried to keep the pressure on the military and supported civilians who have been protesting the military junta.

    2. RSF-Wagner joint mining activities reportedly helped build up gold reserves in the Russian Central Bank, which was essential for Moscow in the aftermath of the invasion of Ukraine

    3. @cold fire Russia is one of the leading producers and exporters of gold. I hope you are aware of this.

  3. This entire report is based on something you didn’t show: a Russian plane flying to Sudan from Libya and a rumour of an air-drop of supplies to RSF. OK, your sources told you this, but you paint an incomplete picture. You failed to mention that the Sudanese military, that is fighting RSF, is also friendly with Russia and has offered them to have a military base/port on the Red Sea. How about mentioning the connection between RSF and the US?

  4. I can’t believe that I would say this but as a Sudanese, I really think that we need support from the USA and Israel. Most of the weaponry in the Sudanese army is Russian. What if spare parts are needed and the Russians refuse to supply?? I know Egypt is involved to help the Sudanese army but there is only so much that Egypt could do

    1. Bring back the rightful leader Omar Al-bashir now because he’s the only alpha leader who kept peace and stability and security we Sudanese need to forget these generals and so called pro democracy opportunities who coused this first place by attacking the rightfully leader who kept peace and stability and security we have no choice but but Al Bashir right now.

    2. @Tuff Barber the collapse of Bashir was a disaster to Sudan. Although he was ruthless, he had things under control regardless of how all forms of international sanctions hurt Sudan. Never in history had Khartoum or any major Sudanese city been a battlefield. Democracy doesn’t work in Africa or the Middle East. Look at the Arab world, all stable arab countries are either a dictatorship or a monarchy. Any country that tried to introduce democracy such as Libya, Syria, Yemen, Iraq and now Sudan have collapsed. Egypt is now a dictatorship which is why it is so stable. Sudan needs a dictator no matter how bad that sounds.

  5. Wagner group intervention in the Sudanese conflict could make it last for a period that is up to now indeterminate 😎

  6. There are currently two C-17 on the way to Djibouti. Both over Egypt right now. Troop enforcements for a potential embassy staff evacuation in Sudan.

    1. According to the US, UK and the EU, democratization and hand-over of power to civilian rule was the priority in Sudan.. instead of working out a win-win deal between al-Burhan and Dagalo.. and ensure long term security and well-being of the Sudanese people.

  7. Russia and the U.S. have a lot in common. Both love helping opposition groups take out their country’s government when they are not fond of its’ current leader.

  8. Its so sad that majority of dictators are ignorant like Ed Amin, Mosoveni Albesher Mengistu, Abey Ahmed and most African dictators
