The Sudanese newspaper "Al-Mandara News" reported that the Sudanese army seized arms shipments belonging to the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) under the command of Hemedti, saying the shipments were coming from Libya's Benghazi city, explaining that the seized shipments contained more than 10.000 pieces of various weapons, and large quantities of medium and heavy ammunition.
The newspaper indicated that military intelligence reports had confirmed that the shipment moved days ago from Benghazi via four huge tractors carrying weapons and military equipment, shipped by a Libyan named Mahmoud Al-Shami, who was the supervisor of this type of operations for the RSF.
The reports indicated that Al-Shami was tasked with delivering the shipment to a person affiliated with Guran tribe in the Sara camp located 35 kilometers from the city of Kufra, named "Abdulrahman Ardakhi", so that he could in turn deliver it to the so-called "Mohammed Bakhit Doudia", who is affiliated with the rebels and belongs to the Mahamid tribe. It added that Doudia was tasked with delivering the shipment to a person from the Tama tribe residing in the Chadian city of Adre named "Mansour Adam Abu Daku".
The newspaper indicated that it was arranged for the logos of international organizations working in the field of humanitarian aid to be placed on the four tractors, so that they would enter Sudan under the umbrella and cover of relief aids.
The Sudanese representative to the Security Council, Al-Harith Idris, accused Khalifa Haftar's forces of being involved in providing logistical support to the rebel forces in his country.
Al-Harith said in a briefing to the Security Council last June that Subul Al-Salam Battalion, loyal to Haftar’s forces and stationed in the city of Kufra in southern Libya, is sending shipments of ammunition and mortars from the warehouses of the 106th Brigade led by Khalid Haftar to Hemedti's RSF.
