Abdelfatah al Burhan

Abdelfatah al Burhan is a Sudanese military officer and the de facto leader of Sudan since the coup in 2019. He has been a central figure in the ongoing power struggle in Sudan, particularly in the conflict against the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) led by his former deputy, Mohammed Hamdan Daglo. In recent months, he has faced criticism for his role in the escalating violence and humanitarian crisis in Sudan, particularly in the Darfur region, where reports indicate significant civilian casualties amid the fighting.
