A bulletin from the Ayin Network published at 17:28 UTC on 8 October 2026 relayed that the Sudanese army had retaken Al-Mazroub in North Kordofan after fierce fighting with the RSF, and that allied Joint Forces had seized Bir Saliba in West Darfur. The same bulletin said army units are advancing toward Al-Khuwai. Neither the Sudanese army nor the Joint Forces was read directly, and the bulletin gives no date for the fighting. An earlier event in this catalogue already records the army saying it captured Al-Mazroub on 2 October 2026.
Verification: unverified
Evidence: Ayin Network bulletin on Al-Mazroub, Bir Saliba and RSF drone strikes on El Obeid
A single bulletin from the Ayin Network. Neither the Sudanese army nor the Joint Forces was read directly, and no Sudanese official account was available when this was written. The catalogue already holds an event for the army saying it captured Al-Mazroub on 2 October 2026, so the recapture may describe the same ground changing hands again.
