2.1. Khartoum

In the reference period covered by the previous EUAA COI Report Sudan – Security Situation (February 2025), the SAF retained isolated military positions after losing much of Khartoum state to the RSF in April 2023. In March 2024, however, the SAF captured the National TV and Radio Station in Omdurman.489 By December 2024, an offensive that had been launched by the SAF and allied forces in mid-September 2024 led to the recapture of key sites, including the Al-Jaili refinery, Qarri Free Zone, and parts of Bahri. The SAF also advanced in Al-Mogran and central Khartoum and reconnected the Bahri Signal Corps with the General Command headquarters.490
