Egypt has denied involvement in the civil war in Sudan
Egypt has denied Sudan Rapid Action Force chief Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo's accusation that the country's armed forces are involved in the conflict in Sudan. Dagalo said the Egyptian armed forces were carrying out strikes in the Jabel Moya area south of Khartoum.
"Egypt is fighting against us," he said . Dagalo mentioned Egypt as one of the six countries involved in the war. Iran, which handed over Muhajir - 6 drones to the Sudanese army at the beginning of this year, was also mentioned among them.
"Egypt rejects the speculation that its air force will participate in the fighting in the brotherly Sudan," the Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs responded to Dagalo's statements.
Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi and Sudanese army commander Abdel Fattah al-Burhan have close friendly relations. Experts call the war in Sudan a conflict between proxy groups and say the Rapid Action Force is backed by the UAE. This was also announced by the authors of the monitoring carried out by the UN in December last year.
The civil war between the security forces of the Rapid Action Forces led by Muhammad Hamdan Dagalo and the country's army in Sudan led by Abd al -Fattah al-Burhan has been ongoing since mid-April 2023. During the civil war, more than 10,000 civilians died, and millions of people became refugees. In addition, cholera epidemic is on the rise in the country. Since July this year, more than 18,000 cholera cases and 550 deaths have been recorded in 6 regions of Sudan.
