TSC President Participates in National Day Celebrations Commemorating Omdurman Liberation

President of the Transitional Sovereignty Council (TSC) and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Abdel Fattah Al-Burhan, paid tribute to the people of Omdurman, both elders and youth, highlighting their role in every national struggle the country has witnessed.
Speaking on Thursday evening during the National Day celebrations for the liberation of Omdurman — organized by the residents of Old Omdurman under the slogan “From History We Draw Strength, With Hope We Build the Future” — he said: “The liberation of Khartoum from the filth of rebellion began in Omdurman. Just as the Mahdist revolution was launched from this city, the liberation of Khartoum from the Al-Dagalo terrorist militia was accomplished from the Wadi Sayyidina military area in Omdurman.”
TSC President Abdel Fattah Al-Burhan offered prayers for the martyrs of Old Omdurman who sacrificed their lives for the Sudanese people, vowing that their blood will not be in vain. He praised the prompt response of Omdurman residents to mobilization calls and highlighted their support and assistance to citizens who remained in the city throughout the conflict, commending their efforts in operating takayas (community support centres) that aided the population. He called for drawing inspiration from the values and sacrifices of Sudanese youth in general, and the youth of Omdurman in particular, stating: “The youth who brought change in December 2019 are capable of uprooting the militia to restore security and stability to Sudan.”
TSC President Al-Burhan sent a clear message to those exploiting the name of the Sudanese people or harming their reputation: “They have no place among us. We live and die with our people.” He reiterated that no truce will be accepted with the rebel militia while they occupy cities and continue to violate citizens’ rights, stressing that Sudan will not recognize any mediation by the United Arab Emirates, given its support for the rebellion.
“We will only accept a ceasefire once the militia withdraws from occupied areas and is gathered in designated zones. Any truce that does not meet these conditions will be rejected by the Sudanese people,” he emphasized.
TSC President Abdel Fattah al-Burhan added: “We want to build Sudan on genuine peace and a solid foundation. To the opposition abroad: you are not enemies of the Sudanese people. Anyone who has not harmed or incited against the state and the homeland is welcome at any time.” He confirmed that arrangements are underway to complete the transitional process and establish the legislative council, noting that this council will include proportional representation for youth, resistance committees, and groups that stood firm against the rebel militia.
