General Command of the Armed Forces

Press release Sunday, 23rd June 2024

Fabricated videos have surfaced on social media released by the media cells of the terrorist Daglo militia and their cooperators showing alleged soldiers executing prisoners after treating them in manners that do not match the rules and norms of war.

The armed forces would like to clarify that these practices cannot come from members of the armed forces which, throughout its history, has abided by the international humanitarian laws, contrary to what the terrorist Daglo militia has been practicing. The entire world has witnessed its daily systematic violations and unprecedented barbarism in the history of conflicts. The execution of prisoners of war in Al-Fula on Friday and the destruction of Bahri Thermal Power Station yesterday are only a few examples of its known terrorist patterns against the country and its civilians.

The armed forces would like to assert that it will not be dragged to the same immoral level as the militia and will remain steadfast in its commitment to international humanitarian law. The armed forces would also like to point out that these fabricated videos that are released by the militia and their cooperators from time to time will not believed by the gracious Sudanese people.
