Sudan's RSF says takes full control of Darfur's El-Fasher

Sudan's paramilitary Rapid Support Forces said on Sunday it had taken full control of El-Fasher, the last major urban centre in western Darfur still outside its hands.

In a statement, the RSF claimed it had "extended control over the city of El-Fasher from the grip of mercenaries and militias," referring to the Sudanese army, which it has been fighting since April 2023.
