Sudanese army claims recapture of Kulbus, key Darfur town on Chadian border

The Sudanese army claimed to have recaptured Kulbus, a strategically important town in western Darfur near the Chadian border, marking what appears to be its largest territorial gain in the region since losing El-Fasher last year. The Rapid Support Forces (RSF), which have been in conflict with the Sudanese military since April 2023, previously controlled much of Darfur after capturing El-Fasher, the military’s last stronghold in the area. The military and its allies, the Joint Forces, still hold some areas along the Chadian border. Kulbus is located on a critical route between the army-controlled town of Al-Tina in North Darfur and El-Geneina, the capital of West Darfur, which remains under RSF control. The Joint Forces stated they had 'full control' of Kulbus after 'decisive battles,' but these claims could not be independently confirmed, and the RSF has not responded. A pro-army group alleged that the RSF used Kulbus as a base for cross-border operations and a supply hub connected to El-Geneina. Fighting has escalated recently along the border between North and West Darfur as the army aims to secure a strategic corridor with Chad, which it accuses of supporting the RSF. Al-Tina,
