Mohamed Hamdan ‘Hemedti’ Dagalo
Mohamed Hamdan ‘Hemedti’ Dagalo is a prominent Sudanese military leader and the head of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), a paramilitary group. Known for his influential role in Sudan's complex political landscape, Hemedti has positioned the RSF as a significant power amid the ongoing conflict in the country. Since April 2023, he has been embroiled in a power struggle against Sudanese Army commander General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, leading to severe humanitarian crises and widespread violence, including accusations of war crimes. Hemedti has claimed that the RSF aims to establish a legal state rather than one controlled by individuals, and has expressed intentions to provide essential services across Sudan, even in areas not under RSF control.
