One eyewitness said residents were celebrating because they hoped it meant an end to the violence.<\/p>\n

The fighting has forced more than 670,000 people to flee their homes.<\/p>\n

The city’s hospitals have been destroyed, and bodies are said to be lining the streets.<\/p>\n

This major advance for the RSF comes as the two warring sides were set to resume peace talks in Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n

The army has not commented on its defeat in Nyala.<\/p>\n

Nyala, capital of South Darfur state, is a strategic city connecting Sudan with Central African Republic (CAR).<\/p>\n

The RSF originated in Darfur and has been accused of atrocities against non-Arabic groups in the region during this year’s conflict.<\/p>\n

High-ranking army generals, including the head of the military in Nyala, were killed in battle a few weeks ago.<\/p>\n

RSF’s second-in-command Abdulrahim Daglo, who was sanctioned by the US for his alleged role in ethnic cleansing in West Darfur, led the capture of Nyala.<\/p>\n

Eyewitnesses have reported that RSF fighters have been looting and storming civilian houses since they seized the city.<\/p>\n

EMERGENCY, a medical organisation that provides treatment to victims of war, says its Sudanese staff members were taken from a paediatric centre in Nyala and arrested by the RSF.<\/p>\n

In June the RSF captured Um-Dafog, a small town on the border with CAR which is believed to be a key area for their supply chain.<\/p>\n

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has been accused of supplying weapons to the RSF through CAR and Chad’s Um-Dafog. It has denied the accusations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
