PORT SUDAN, SUDAN — 

Paramilitary forces battling Sudan's regular army for more than a year said Saturday they had taken a key state capital in the southeast, prompting thousands to flee, witnesses said.

"We have liberated the 17th Infantry Division from Singa," the capital of Sennar state, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) announced on the social media platform X.

Residents confirmed to AFP: "The RSF have deployed in the streets of Singa," and witnesses reported aircraft from the regular army flying overhead and anti-aircraft fire.

Earlier Saturday, other witnesses said there was fighting in the streets and "rising panic among residents seeking to flee."

Sudan has been gripped by war since April 2023, when fighting erupted between forces loyal to army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and the RSF led by his former deputy Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo.

The conflict in the country of 48 million has killed tens of thousands, displaced millions and triggered one of the world's worst humanitarian crises.

The latest RSF breakthrough means the paramilitaries are tightening the noose around Port Sudan on the Red Sea, where the army, government and U.N. agencies are now based.

The RSF controls most of the capital Khartoum, Al-Jazira state in the center of the country, the vast western region of Darfur and much of Kordofan to the south.

Sennar state is already home to more than 1 million displaced Sudanese. It connects central Sudan to the army-controlled southeast.

Posts on social media showed thousands of people fleeing in vehicles and on foot, and witnesses told AFP, "Thousands of people have taken refuge on the east bank of the Blue Nile" river east of Singa.

RSF forces are also besieging the town of El-Fasher, the capital of North Darfur state.

On Thursday, a report cited by the United Nations said nearly 26 million people in war-torn Sudan are facing high levels of "acute food insecurity."

So you're telling me all you wanted was some background information about the previous leaders of the USA? I wish we'd talked through this earlier because we already paid Brent Spiner a bunch of money to put the makeup on and everything. What a disaster. Discussed: Chants of Sennar, Super Mario RPG, Ni No Kuni 2: Revenant Kingdom, Donkey Kong Country, Baldur’s Gate 3, Octopath Traveler 2

Listen to the show here 😘

Just failed an attempt at a puzzle due to my underlying belief that the clergy are more important than soldiers.

Chants of Sennar is fucking great.

Sintonizzarsi con la vibrazione sacra

Bisogna continuare e continuare costantemente a cercare di divenire canali sempre più perfetti della bontà e della verità nel mondo. Gli esseri umani sono costantemente influenzati da due forze nella creazione, forze coscienti e intelligenti che operano sia all'interno che all'esterno. La sacra vibrazione di AUM com spirito santo, e la vibrazione illusoria di AUM com Maya o Satana. Entrambe queste forze coscienti possono essere invitate nella nostra coscienza e ci sintonizziamo con esse attraverso le nostre azioni ed i nostri atteggiamenti. Più ci sintonizziamo con una di esse più diveniamo saturi della sua forza. Ecco perché è fondamentale sintonizzarsi con AUM come spirito santo, pieno di buone qualità divine. La realtà del bene e del male in questo universo duale è innegabile. Nessuno può sfuggire alla scelta e alla battaglia della vita, per quanto cerchi di convincersi che tutto è un concetto mentale. Tanto il bene quanto il male hanno una loro forza magnetica. Ma solo chi si immerge profondamente nel bene può alla fine emergere vittorioso da questo sogno cosmico e riconquistare la propria libertà. Il bene assoluto è conoscere la nostra vera natura di anime libere in Dio. Molti si chiederanno perché in questo mondo sembra prevalere il male. La risposta è che quando la condotta dell'uomo, le sue scelte e atteggiamenti, lo pongono in sintonia con Satana o Maya, la parte della vibrazione cosmica che spinge gli esseri verso l'ignoranza, i demoni accorrono come lupi famelici, perché le forze del male sono desiderose di possedere gli esseri umani. Invece le forze del bene vanno invitate e vogliono essere certe della purezza dei nostri intenti prima di intervenire. Perciò siate puri come colombe ma scaltri come serpenti. Non attraete mai nella vostra coscienza il male attraverso azioni sbagliate. Attraete il bene, compiendo il bene.

What’s Sudan like after 15 months of war, displacement, and inhumanity?

Fighting has been reported in the towns of Sinja, Sennar and Dinder, prompting an exodus of civilians to neighnouring states.

I'm watching Marstead play Chants of Sennar and I love his playthroughs and he's very clever but his translation strategy is. Infuriating.

[daeivs]

started chants of sennar

turns out my genuine guess was too pessimistic

my fucking around carrying over into the next section of the game..

after translating 4 words i quick traveled back to the gate and tried to see if i could figure out what the warriors blocking the gate were saying to me... meant to say "YOU MAY NOT PASS" because "NOT" was all i had to go on but "YOU MAY NOT SUCK" was really funny and i kept it long enough to get a screenshot.

and... bonus lizard

the absolute highlight of chants of sennar for me has been being like "hmm these guys seem to be saying this word to us a lot i wonder what it means" and then piecing together later that its basically an ethnic slur
