Pan-Arab Egyptian, Saudi, and Turkish-state coverage frames the Sudanese army as the constitutional state defending against an armed mutiny by the RSF. Islamist / Brotherhood elements within the army are treated as a manageable internal matter relative to the existential RSF threat. Prescription: international support for the Sudanese government, sanctions on RSF backers, no negotiations that legitimise RSF as a co-equal party.
