Accusation that a Sudanese 'terrorist' battalion recruits fighters for the army

Sudan ·

Sudanese sources say the Al-Baraa bin Malik battalion, which the United States designates a terrorist entity, is recruiting fighters from Ethiopia's Tigray region to fight alongside the Sudanese army.

Sudan's army has been fighting the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) since April 2023, a war that has produced one of the world's largest humanitarian crises.
