## RSF's Offensive Targets Kordofan Amid Rising Tensions
Sudan’s Rapid Support Forces (RSF), a paramilitary group, are intensifying their campaign to seize control of Kordofan, a key region in Sudan. The RSF has faced accusations of violence and abuses during its operations, raising alarm over the escalating conflict.
