Sudan’s national army reaffirmed it would not withdraw from Al Fushqa district near borders with Ethiopia when the Chairman of the North African country’s Sovereignty Council Abdel Fattah al-Burhan reiterated commitment to fulfill all goals set out by the Sudanese Revolution.

In a Tuesday speech marking Eid al-Adha, Burhan said he is committed “to move forward in achieving the goals of the glorious December revolution.”

The Chairman stressed the need for unity among revolutionary forces and national forces that believe in change and the principles and aspirations of the people in terms of freedom, peace, and justice.

Burhan called on citizens to be more vigilant and careful as well as work to uphold the values established by the revolution.

“We need (revolution values) today more than ever… challenges and dangers surrounding our country will only add to our determination to move forward in achieving the goals set out by the glorious revolution,” said Burhan, according to the state-run news agency, SUNA.

He emphasized that confronting challenges requires unity within national ranks and attention to the higher interests of the state and the requirements of democratic transformation.

“This will not be achieved except through strengthening national unity, accepting the other, and rejecting the policies of exclusion, fanaticism, regionalism, racism, or partisanship,” said Burhan, calling on citizens to “rally around” Sudan.

Also marking the occasion, Sudanese Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok reiterated the need to preserve social peace and pointed out signs of an agreement emerging for the nation’s east.

Hamdouk reviewed an initiative he launched, dubbed “National Crisis and Transition Issues - The Way Forward.”

The prime minister indicated that it is an initiative concerned with developing a national project that can accommodate everyone and complete transition tasks on many levels.

Hamdouk appealed to the citizens of eastern Sudan to scale up their adherence to peaceful coexistence values and spreading social peace.

He called for cooperation to address the developmental grievances in the east.

The King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief) has announced a call for Saudi medical professionals to volunteer their expertise to support Syria’s health sector, addressing urgent needs across more than 20 specialties. This initiative is part of the Saudi “Amal” (Hope) Volunteer Program, aimed at meeting the healthcare needs of crisis-affected countries.
The center invited specialists interested in volunteering to register for the year-long program, which seeks to provide emergency and medical services across various fields to alleviate the suffering of the Syrian people through the contributions of medical volunteers.
Dr. Samer Al-Jutaili, KSrelief’s spokesperson, stated that the center’s external volunteering platform allows professionals to register in critical medical specialties to aid Syria’s health sector, particularly during this challenging humanitarian crisis.
In an interview with Asharq Al-Awsat, Al-Jutaili explained that the required specialties were determined in coordination with Syrian health authorities. He emphasized that the program aims to mobilize Saudi medical volunteers to address the health sector’s needs across all Syrian regions. He also praised the dedication of Saudi medical professionals, who have made significant international contributions through the program, supporting humanitarian efforts in 57 countries with over 200,000 operations across various specialties.
KSrelief announced that the “Amal” program was launched under the directives of King Salman bin Abdulaziz and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, reflecting Saudi Arabia’s leadership in humanitarian efforts globally. The initiative seeks to deliver emergency and medical services to reduce human suffering and promote a dignified life with the participation of highly skilled Saudi volunteers.
In parallel with the volunteer program, Saudi Arabia continues its air and land relief operations for Syria. The sixth relief plane from KSrelief arrived in Damascus on Sunday, carrying food, medical supplies, and shelter materials to support the Syrian population during these challenging times.
Additionally, the first convoy of Saudi relief trucks crossed the Jordanian Jaber border on Sunday en route to Syria. The convoy included 60 trucks loaded with over 541 tons of food, medical supplies, and shelter materials as part of Saudi Arabia’s land relief initiative for Syria.
Al-Jutaili noted that the land bridge will complement efforts to distribute aid across Syrian territories, including heavy medical equipment such as MRI, X-ray, and CT scan machines that cannot be transported by air. He emphasized that the Saudi aid bridge to Damascus would ensure comprehensive coverage of Syria’s urgent needs, offering critical support to hospitals and healthcare facilities across the country.
