The Sudanese army has reportedly overcome a protracted siege in the city of Kadugli that had trapped thousands of civilians in famine conditions amidst the ongoing conflict with the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF). The army's breakthrough could represent a shift in the war's dynamic.

Regional powers are closely watching the battle, with increasing involvement, as the RSF continues its advance in the greater Kordofan region. The humanitarian crisis remains severe, with starvation and drone attacks adding to the plight of civilians. Many have fled to neighboring territories seeking refuge.

The army's success has been attributed to a collapse in the RSF's supply lines, alongside strategic support from armed groups in the region. However, the humanitarian suffering continues unabated, as peace efforts led by the United States have not yielded successful resolutions.
