Sudanese Government Condemns U.S. Sanction Against Burham
By: Michael Mike
Sudanese Government has condemned the sanction by the United States on the President of the Sovereignty Council and Commander-in-Chief of the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF), General Abdel Fattah al-Burham.
The condemnation was contained in a statement on Thursday by the Sudanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The statement signed by the Ministry’s Office of the Spokesperson and Media Directorate, read: “The Government of Sudan rejects and condemns the sanctions imposed by the U.S. Department of the Treasury on the President of the Sovereignty Council and Commander-in-Chief of the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF), General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan
“This decision lacks the basic principles of justice and objectivity, relying on implausible pretexts. It also reflects a blatant disregard for the Sudanese people, who stand firmly united behind General Abdel Fattah Al-Burhan as a symbol of their sovereignty and armed forces, and as a courageous leader in the battle for dignity against the terrorist janjaweed militias.
“It is both strange and troubling that such a dubious decision comes shortly after the U.S. administration determined that the RSF militia are committing acts of genocide in Sudan. Consequently, the administration’s move, days before the end of its tenure, to sanction the Commander-in-Chief of SAF, who is protecting the Sudanese people from this genocidal design, reflects inconsistency and a profound failure to uphold justice.
“This flawed decision cannot be justified under the guise of neutrality, as it practically amounts to support for those committing genocide.”
The statement added that: “This unethical decision will not deter the Sudanese people in their struggle against the terrorist militia. It will neither weaken their resolve nor their unity in eradicating this cancer from their land, so that Sudan will emerge stronger than ever.”

Joint Troops of Operation FANSAN YANMA in Katsina State have foiled a bandit attack and rescued 10 kidnapped persons in Faskari Local Government Area of the state.
Sources said the incident occurred in the early hours of April 12 at Sabon Garin Yankara village following a distress call received at about 3:30 a.m.
According to the sources, a large number of armed bandits invaded the community, prompting the joint troops to be deployed in the area.
They added that the joint team tactically blocked the escape routes of the attackers and engaged them in a fierce gun duel.
“The bandits were forced to abandon the kidnapped victims and fled with gunshot injuries, leading to the rescue of all 10 victims unharmed,” the sources said.
The sources, however, disclosed that a vigilante member, identified as Sanusi Naatta, 45, sustained gunshot wounds during the encounter and was later confirmed dead at a hospital.
They noted that security operatives have since blocked all exit routes, while efforts have been intensified to apprehend the fleeing suspects.
