Sudan: Haftar's 'Forces' Direct Engagement With RSF Militia Represents Dangerous Escalation'
- On June 10, 2025, Sudan's army accused forces loyal to Khalifa Haftar and the RSF of attacking border posts in the Libya-Egypt-Sudan tri-border area near al-Fashir.
- This accusation followed rising tensions after May drone strikes on Port Sudan, Sudan severing ties with the UAE, and Khartoum blaming the UAE for backing Haftar and the RSF.
- Sudan's army stated the attack aimed to seize control of the tri-border region and called it a "blatant aggression" coordinated by Haftar's eastern Libyan forces and paramilitaries.
- The Sudanese army affirmed its commitment to protecting the nation and its sovereignty, asserting it will overcome the challenges posed by what it describes as a wider foreign-backed scheme involving the UAE.
- Following the attack, Sudanese forces evacuated the border triangle on June 11, highlighting the conflict's dangerous escalation and the failure of international mediation to halt the multi-year war.
