but the army wants it done in to mom and vol. explains how the paramilitary force was formed. off the support forces upon military fight, as merely from dot for the safe was created by former president omar bashir in 2013, to stabilize the war torn region in western sudan. and more broadly to consolidate his personal grip on power. he was concerned about any security institution being strong enough to overthrow and challenge him. so he allowed, you know, he allowed basically a proliferation of different armed groups and centers of power within the country. but the origin of the false goes back to 2003. that's when president of the ship created an arm and a tribal militia to crush a local rebellion in the west. a force became known as the juncture. we sometimes come through the general public data behind was instrumental in creating and

training both a gentle wheat and later the us f. he worked in the field for jazz with his now dead. i from 100100 glue known as hannity, the commander of the outer stuff. in 2019, the 2 men joined foster to overthrow the amount of the ship bore hon headed. the transitional, military council and handed douglas served as his deputy. but the assess continued to grow in both sites and we buy some estimates. it now both $100000.00 tests on it . it took on several roles including border security and maintaining law and order cross sudan activists accused out of 5th of participating in the killing of $123.00 pro democracy professors in june 2019. but it's him at his aspirations for rival political leadership in cartoon that led to dest, called with his ally, albert han, and paved the way for the current situation. difference over the terms of integration of the stuff into the army intensified after the signing of

a framework agreement that lay the foundations for the transitional period in december, 2022. the failure of talks on this and other issues, finally led to what observers have been warning about and all our military confrontation crisis group was warning just 10 years ago. you know, while by here was still in power that if you ever left power, one of the big concerns would be that he left behind such a mess in terms of the military insecurity. that a huge risk was that these parties would themselves turn on each other as ever. it says to the population, but the, the price, palpable fear of the current conflict may prove more deadly and more destructive than any of them has witnessed in the past 100 fine. just sedans, national army is considered one of the strongest in the horn of africa. but the reset, the rapid support forces is also a powerful paramilitary groups. so just how do they square up?

while the sudanese army has about $205000.00 personnel in its ranks including some 100000 active duty soldiers and its air force has 191 aircraft, one of its most important strengths. there is no confirmed information about the strength of the recess, but it is estimated. it has 800000 troops and about 10000 vehicles, mostly 4 wheel drives carrying weaponry like anti aircraft guns. and canons. still ahead on al jazeera police in india, investigate the killing of a former member of parliament, was shot dead on life tv. and we will tell you why the curtains are coming down for the last time on broadway's longest running stages. ah

both of them will be not used for that. one of the murder of formation. they will make a walking distance and open them to any attack that they have. they can meet on the high side. you can see that it could have been re plans. but the fact of the matter is that both of them were can those, the long, long list of kinds of that committed the specially was appeared quite a bit and nobody's really shedding tears with them. in fact, the, the cheaper the soccer state has built a petition for taking on the muslim mafia. but this is a major set back to his impression that he's protecting law and order be. there is a sense that vigilante justice is being celebrated, which is really wrong. because just to mr. yogi was the chief minister, aspire the order has deemed to becoming the premise of this country. and this will not go on very well with whatever has happened. top diplomats from g 7 countries are met in the japanese city of car,
