Sudan’s armed forces are described as achieving sweeping victories over the Rapid Support militia on fronts in Kordofan, Darfur and Blue Nile. At the same time, an economic war is active, with external hands involved and backed by dense international and diplomatic cover. The stated aim is to destroy economic projects and data networks and loot resources, so that Sudan cannot recover even after the war ends. Experts and sources cited in the report discuss this situation.
