The RSF has not yet responded to the attack. The group seized control of Gezira State in December 2023 following the withdrawal of the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) from Wad Madani, the state’s capital.

Since April 15, 2023, Sudan has been in a violent conflict between the SAF and the RSF, leading to at least 16,650 deaths and displacing millions of people.
