The Sudan People’s Liberation Movement-North (SPLM-N) celebrated on Friday its day of the start of struggle for liberation against the Khartoum
government.
The movement marked the 42nd event of the start of struggle with a political rally at their strong-hold town of Kauda under Heiban County in the Nuba Mountains region.
Regional Secretary, Hashim Abdallah, said that the event was organize to call for a rally for political awareness and the way forward for the movement.
The struggle for liberation in Sudan broke out in 1983 after Khartoum declared war in the Nuba Mountains suspecting the region of aligning with South Sudan before its creation in 2011.
The region has remained in blockade for years by Khartoum government frequented by intense armed conflict.
In 2023 SPLM-N chairman, Abdel Aziz Adam Al Hilu, told a gathering at the inauguration of a health institute that the region is in a state of ‘no war no peace.’
Following the outbreak of conflict in April 2023 in Khartoum the situation of the Nuba Mountains region has remained in limbo.
However, the movement (SPLM-N) has adopted a policy of self-defense and refrains from involvement in the latest Sudanese crisis.
