Offensive closes in on Wad Madani
Sudanese army advances toward capital of breadbasket state
The Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) launched attacks along several axes toward Wad Madani, the capital of Al-Jazira State, resulting in fighting in rural areas south and east of the the city, which is controlled by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
Morale is high among the advancing SAF troops, following a series of recent successes, including the recapture last week of Sinja, the Sennar State capital.
