Violent tribal clashes erupted on Sunday in the Al-Wadi neighborhood of Nyala city between factions of the Beni Halba and Salamat tribes—some of whose members are currently fighting within the ranks of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) militia. The conflict was triggered by the theft of a firearm (a rifle) valued at 500,000 Sudanese pounds from a member of one of the two tribes, which subsequently ignited confrontations between the two sides.

According to reports received by Sudanhorizon ,the clashes have resulted in fatalities and injuries on both sides, meanwhile the confrontation between the warring groups continues to escalate.
