Sudan’s army reported capturing several locations in North Kordofan and said operations were continuing, including efforts to reopen a key road. The claims were not independently verified, and the fighting is part of Sudan’s wider conflict and humanitarian crisis.

Sudan’s army said it and allied forces had seized control of Abu Qaoud, Umm Samima and Mount Abu Sanoun in North Kordofan after several days of fighting with the Rapid Support Forces. Military operations were reportedly continuing to pursue remaining RSF fighters, expand control and secure the recaptured areas, with the army aiming to reopen the El Obeid–Dilling road. The reported advance comes amid wider fighting in Kordofan and Sudan’s broader conflict, which the United Nations says has caused tens of thousands of deaths and displaced about 13 million people. The territorial-control claims were attributed to Sudanese military sources and were not independently verified in the supplied report.
