3 days agoSouth Sudan army to secure critical Heglig oilfield in Sudan war spillover
South Sudan's military has moved into the Heglig oilfield under an unprecedented agreement between the country and neighbouring Sudan's warring parties to safeguard critical energy infrastructure from the country's civil war. The deployment on Wednesday came after the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) captured the strategic site on December 8, compelling the government-aligned Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) units to retreat across the border into South Sudan, where they reportedly surrendered their weapons.
