Saudi Arabia funds Al-Baharan to curb Islamic movement influence

It was reported that Saudi Arabia provided financial support to disable leaders of the Rapid Support Forces and facilitate their joining the Sudanese army, with the aim of reducing the influence of the Islamic movement within the military establishment. Both Major General Al-Nur Ahmed Adam "Al-Nur Al-Quba" and Ali Rizq Allah "As-Safna" received amounts ranging from $800,000 to $2.5 million, as part of efforts to reshape the balance of power in Sudan and achieve political settlements. These moves come within the context of Riyadh's support for the Sudanese army, aiming to keep Islamists out of influential positions, while also seeking to open channels with civilian forces to ensure political stability.
