Sudan’s Army Seizes Omdurman Radio, TV Station
Sudan’s army announced Tuesday it had taken control of the national radio and television headquarters in the city of Omdurman after heavy fighting with the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). Reuters quotes an army spokesperson as saying the seizure liberated the “memory and conscience of the Sudanese nation” from the RSF. However, the RSF released a video late Tuesday showing they were still in control of the radio and TV station. Ibrahim Hamza, a journalist and researcher in Khartoum, tells VOA’s James Butty, while some Sudanese are happy about seizing the station, others say it has very little impact on the war.
