Alarming conditions have unfolded in El-Gazira State following the attacks by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), posing a severe threat to the lives of people in Wad Medani city and surrounding areas.

All state hospitals are now non-operational, accompanied by widespread power outages, water and medicine shortages, and the closure of markets, exacerbating the distress of citizens.

Speaking to Radio Tamazuj, Amira Al-Tayeb, a resident, confirmed that RSF continued to assault citizens, firing weapons, vandalizing shops, and distributing goods to the public before departing the city. The population expressed profound disappointment with the current situation.

Amidst the crisis, Amir Abdul Rahman urgently called upon the international community to intervene and rescue millions of lives in jeopardy. The plea emphasizes the critical need for assistance due to food shortages, electricity and water disruptions, and the shutdown of essential medical facilities.

Bashir Abdelgadir has verified that the current situation in El Gazira State is catastrophic, with a complete cessation of eating and drinking due to the depletion of strategic stocks and market closures.

A Radio Tamazuj investigation revealed numerous closed markets, shops, and health centers that have shut their doors to citizens. Additionally, fuel stations, as well as electricity and water networks, are closed across all cities in El Gazira State.

Sudan's Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have recently declared the capture of Wad Madani town and military base in Gezira state, marking a significant advancement for the paramilitary group.

The strategic control of El Gazira state, situated to the south of Khartoum, positions the RSF to make further advances toward army-controlled states in the east, central, and southeast, according to analysts. 

Sudan spiralled into war after soaring tensions between army chief General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and RSF commander General Mohammed Hamdan Dagalo exploded into open fighting in mid-April.

The war broke out due to disagreements over plans for a political transition and the integration of the RSF into the army, four years after former ruler Omar al-Bashir was deposed in an uprising.

More than 12,000 people have been killed, according to a conservative estimate by the Armed Conflict and Event Data Project, while the United Nations says nearly 6.8 million have been forced to flee their homes.
