Description: The video shows SAF or SAF-affiliated soldiers firing a ZU-23-2 southbound in Al Qamair, Omdurman. The ZU-23-2 is a type of autocannon often mounted on pickup trucks, but in this case it is used as towed artillery and placed at what appears to be a fixed defensive position.

Another video geolocated near this same location shows that SAF also fired S-8 rockets from here toward Khartoum Bahri, across the river.

Map: The yellow pin on this map indicates the position of the artillery.

Green indicates SAF control and orange is RSF control. Disclaimer: The lines of control are approximate and not exact, and the situation can change rapidly. Although the map is generally reliable, it may be incorrect in some areas.
