Background

Tensions arose between al-Burhan and Hemedti over al-Burhan's restoration to the office of old-guard Islamist officials who had dominated the Omar al-Bashir government. Hemedti saw the appointment of these officials as a signal that al-Burhan was attempting to maintain the dominance of Khartoum's traditional elite over Sudanese politics. This was a danger to the RSF's political position, as said elites were hostile to Hemedti due to his ethnic background as a Darfuri Arab. [8] Hemedti's expression of regret over the October 2021 coup signalled a widening divide between him and al-Burhan. [9]

Tensions between the RSF and the SAF began to escalate in February 2023, as the RSF began to recruit members across Sudan. [10] Throughout February and early March the RSF built up in the Sudanese capital of Khartoum, until a deal was brokered on 11 March and the RSF withdrew. [10] [11] As part of this deal negotiations were conducted between the SAF, RSF, and civilian leaders, but these negotiations were delayed and halted by political disagreements. [12] Chief among the disputes was the integration of the RSF into the military: the RSF insisted on a 10-year timetable for its integration into the regular army, while the army demanded integration within two years. [13] [14] Other contested issues included the status given to RSF officers in the future hierarchy, and whether RSF forces should be under the command of the army chief rather than Sudan's commander-in-chief, al-Burhan. [15]

On 11 April 2023, RSF forces deployed near the city of Merowe as well as in Khartoum. [16] Government forces ordered them to leave and were refused. This led to clashes when RSF forces took control of the Soba military base south of Khartoum. [16] [17] On 13 April, RSF forces began their mobilization, raising fears of a potential rebellion against the junta (TSC). The SAF has declared the mobilization as illegal. [18]

Establishment

On 15 April 2023 the RSF took over the headquarters of the state broadcaster, Sudan TV and the Merowe Airport, [19] the RSF attacked SAF bases across Sudan, including Khartoum and the Khartoum Airport. [13] [20] The RSF captured the presidential palace. [21] [22] Hemedti claimed that the RSF controlled most of the city's government buildings, but this was disputed by al-Burhan. [23] With that the Rapid Support Forces took over there first territories.

Development between 2023 and 2025

Controlled areas and loss and takeover of more areas

The RSF started a occupation of the Khartoum International Airport on the 15 April 2023 which lasted until the 25 March 2025, it's control over the Merowe Airport ended already after some day's with the Battle of Merowe Airport.

Governance

Aid

Hemedti announced in 2023 the creation of the Sudan Agency for Relief and Humanitarian Operations (SARHO) a own aid agency of the RSF which operated in the areas controlled by the Rapid Support Forces. [3] Foreign humanitarian aid in the controlled territory of the Rapid Support Forces only started one year later. [2]

Ban on fleeing

The RSF imposed a ban on residents of West Darfur from fleeing to the Republic of Chad with limited exceptions shortly after the takeover of the border post at Kereneik. [122]

Evacuation

On the 7 October 2024 when the RSF begun withdraw from the East Nile district of Khartoum State, it ordered the evacuation of civilians from the Hilat Hamad, Hilat Khogali, and Al-Danaqla neighborhoods. [81]

Government buildings used by the RSF

The Rapid Support Forces used government buildings in Ed Daein and Nyala. [123]

Economy

Since the beginning of the civil war, markets with the name "Dagalo Markets" were found in different places like Kordofan, Darfur and the Khartoum metropolitan area, there are also common in the cities of west Sudan which is were the RSF had much power. Goods which were looted by the Rapid Support Forces, affiliated militias or criminal gangs are put on these markets by smugglers. Also the opponent of the RSF, the SAF takes part of the "Dagalo Markets". [124] [125]

The Rapid Support Forces banned the new issued currency of the Republic of Sudan which got issued in December 2024. [1] [126]

The collapse of Sudan’s economy has benefited the RSF. In the RSF-controlled areas of Khartoum, it has created work structures that make an immiserated population dependent on the RSF. This political economy got seen as part of the RSF’s transformation from an irregular fighting force into an entrepreneurial system of predatory accumulation. [125]

Dissolution

On 18 February 2025 the Rapid Support Forces announced the establishment of a parallel government in exile. On the same day a Sudan Founding Charter was issued to form the Sudan Founding Alliance.

[135] On 4 March 2025, the Sudan Founding Alliance announced that it had adopted a transitional constitutional framework to pave the way for forming a rival "Government of Peace and Unity" to administer territory under the control of the RSF and allied groups. [136] [137] [138] On 8 March, the RSF announced that arrangements to form the "Government of Peace and Unity" were complete and plans to issue passports, official documents, and currency were being prepared. [139] On the 15 April the establishment of the parallel government was announced by Hemedti, the Government of Peace and Unity was formed on the same day. [6] [7] [140]
