Sudanese Army
How much of an impact is the Sudanese Armed Forces' counteroffensive having on the conflict in Sudan?
The SAF counteroffensive, which began September 26 last year, has dramatically changed the conflict landscape. The armed forces have made significant territorial gains throughout Sudan, creating a very different situation compared to a year ago when many questioned the army's future existence. While the SAF has problems, their conduct has been notably better than the RSF's, allowing them to win the hearts of many civilians who have been under RSF control for almost two years. This improved local sentiment has strengthened the army's position and shifted power dynamics in the nearly two-year conflict.

The conflict represents an unprecedented level of humanitarian suffering that has garnered international concern, though adequate intervention appears insufficient given the scale of the crisis.
