For a better knowing of the situation I invitation you to read my text, in which I explain who they are defiled and what the Sudanese coup (link below) is about.

The Sudanese coup. The conflict of Khartoum.

Gen. Militia Force. Dagalo had another success in Khartoum today. The Sudanese Armed Forces headquarters, located right next to the airport, which was taken over by the regiments on the first day of combat, fell into their hands.

The Dagalo militias besides managed to occupy the radio station in the neighboring Omdurman (part of the Chartum agglomeration). In North Khartoum (another part of the agglomeration) there was besides fierce fighting present between the Dagalo militias and the troops of General Burhan's army.

The army has a large problem fighting in the city. Dagalo's people took over any of the civilian buildings and turned them into field quarters, military magazines, opposition points, etc.

Despite intense raids and the usage of helicopters, the army is incapable to regain its initiative in the capital. present in the confederate suburbs of Khartoum, an armored column appeared, which was heading for the center to strengthen General Burhan's faithful troops.

It is not known if the military column has reached its destination. The recording, on which the column is visible, originates from the territory of Jabra, which is about 12 km distant from the sectors where the fighting takes place.

Militia Gen. Dagalo occupied a military base in Dżebel Aulja, about 22 km from Khartoum. Around 10 T-55 tanks and respective armored transporters fell into the hands of the public. It's not known if the machines are working.

There is inactive a game of “cat and mouse” in the province. The airport in Marawi is back again. The day before yesterday (the first day of the coup) Dagalo's men occupied the airport. Yesterday, they were driven out of it. Today, there's quite a few fighting going on over the airport again and there's no telling who controls it.

Head of the Intelligence Department in the fast Support Force (RSF) went to the Army side. This is the highest military position so far, who has decided to betray Dagalo and control to Gen. Burhan's side.

Dagalo published in his social media accounts an appeal to the global community (in English). The troupe leader asked for intervention and assistance in the fight against "radical Islamist" Gen. Burhan. Dagalo said he was fighting for democracy.

For those who know the communicative of Dagalo and Burhan, those words are at most ridiculous. Both gentlemen, your privileged positions during the Omar al Bashir regime. In addition, in 2021 Dagalo and Burhan jointly overturned Prime Minister Hamdok's legitimate government.

Despite all the ridiculousness of this statement, you gotta admit that people Dagalo is better at propaganda. Fairy tales about Dagalo-reformer and the fight for Sudanese democracy – contrary to appearances – may fall on susceptible ground.

Speaking of propaganda, it's a gene. Burhan inactive hasn't made a message to the nation. He talks to the media, but only by telephone. Only present 1 of the army commanders and a associate of the alleged Sovereignty Council, General Yasser Al-Atta, showed up publically and visited injured soldiers.

It is worth mentioning that General Burhan gave an interview for Sky News today. He said he was ready to negociate with Dagalo. At the same time, however, he emphasized that he was convinced that the army would win. "Every war ends with negotiations, even if the opponent is defeated".

There's inactive a trend I've been writing about since the first day of the coup—gen. Dagalo has an advantage in the capital and slow but successively, they occupy another crucial sectors. In the province, however, the situation is more complicated and it is not visible that either organization has a clear advantage.

Personal Observation: Dagalo militias seem much more mobile than Burhan's troops. Based on pick-ups, they are able to jump distant from their opponent faster, regroup and attack under more favorable conditions. This can be seen, for example, during the fight for the airport in Marawi.

It seemed that the army would have a large advantage in the air force. However, as Dagalo's people usage civilian buildings, the benefits to the army with advantages in the air have been severely limited.
