Home › SudanSenior RSF Commander Defects to Sudanese Army with Troops and EquipmentMajor General al-Nour Ahmed Adam, a prominent commander of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), defected to the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) on April 21. Adam crossed front lines with a significant contingent of fighters and military hardware, marking the most high-profile defection since the conflict entered its fourth year. Sudan's military leadership welcomed the move and issued a call for other paramilitary members to abandon the RSF as fighting remains stalemated in Khartoum and Darfur.
