Sudanese RSF (Paramilitary Rapid Support Forces) have proclaimed a parallel government, deepening political fragmentation following months of civil conflict with the civilian coalition. The move comes after failed peace negotiations and escalating battles across Khartoum and Darfur. Observers warn that dual governance models raise risk of fragmented authority and collapse of state institutions. Civilians report rising displacement and growing humanitarian needs amid infrastructure breakdown. International mediators called for renewed inclusive talks to avert total collapse.
