Sudan army says retakes key town near Chad

KHARTOUM: The Sudanese army said it had retaken Kulbus, a strategic town near the Chadian border, in what appeared to be its biggest battlefield gain in western Darfur since the fall of El-Fasher last year. The Rapid Support Forces, at war with the army since April 2023, consolidated control over most of Darfur after capturing El-Fasher, the military’s final stronghold in the region. The military and its allied Joint Forces, a coalition of armed groups, meanwhile retained pockets of control along the Chadian border.
