"The government has announced that the Sudanese Air Force has launched strikes on a base controlled by a Christian militia in the south. A government spokesman stated that dozens of militants were killed and the base was destroyed. These militias, often operating out of the south of the country, have long posed a threat to the Republic, and the government has sworn to wipe them out by any means necessary."

"An army spokesman has stated that Sudanese soldiers have recently exchanged fire with militiamen in the Darfur region. This incident comes at a time of increased tensions between the government and militias in the south, who claim that the government has not been giving their region fair treatment. The government has denied these charges, and has denounced the militias as common terrorists and criminals."

With violence in Darfur ad the South intensifying, the Sudanese military would go to a state of heightened alert. Additionally, the army and the air force would begin to plan for a major offensive against the rebels in Darfur, in order crush them before they gained even more strength. Sudan had already fallen apart once because of internal conflict. It would not be allowed to happen again.

Virtually overnights, thousands of troops and hundreds of artillery pieces and MBTs would begin a major offensive into the North Darfur state. A number of militia bases would be captured or destroyed, and the air force would launch nearly 100 attacks on the militants. War had come to the Sudan once again.

The Sudanese assault would be successful, at first. Air strikes and ground assaults would kill hundreds of militants, and result in the capture of dozens of bases. However, slowly, the militants would begin to reorganize themselves, forming a loose coalition that called themselves, the Sudanese Liberation Army. they would quickly seize control of a number of small towns, and would temporarily stall the Sudanese advance.

The request from Japan would be somewhat surprising, given the massive contrast between the two nations. Nevertheless, a meeting with General al-Bashir would quickly be set up

The SLP would be successful in temporarily halting the Sudanese assault. Temporarily being the key word. Soon after the initial setback, Sudanese forces would begin another attack. The rebels would hold their positions, but would take heavy casualties.

 

With the threat of the fight ending in a stalemate growing, the Sudanese Air Force would launch some 100 sorties against rebel positions. This would have a devastating effect on the militants, who would then break under the next Sudanese offensive. The Sudanese army would begin sweeping through Northern Darfur.

With their power broken in the North Darfur state, the SLP would flee to the Central, East, West, and South Darfur states. There, they would face another assault by the military, which would drive them back a good distance. However, their lines would hold, and eventually, the Sudanese assault would peter out. Both sides would begin to consolidate their positions.

 

Meanwhile, in southern Sudan, the air force would step up its strikes against the secessionist militias there

It was a relatively quiet day at the front lines. At least, as quiet as a front line could get. Both sides had yet to take any major actions, and only a few skirmishes of note took place.

 

In Darfur, a rebel column would be broken up by Sudanese assault helicopters.

 

In the south, militia forces would destroy two army checkpoints, before retreating in the face of Sudanese tanks.

The Sudanese assault was progressing steadily. The militants had lost much of their territory in West Darfur, and were slowly being forced back. Militants in other parts of Darfur would launch two successful raids on Sudanese outposts before being forced back.

 

In the south, the government would begin to arm Janjaweed militants and tribesmen in order to make up for the military's weak presence in the region. These government backed forces would begin fighting the southern militias.

Sudanese forces would finally succeed in destroying militia forces in West Darfur. There would be some remaining guerrilla activity, but this would be quickly contained, due to a lack of popular support for the militants. The military would now begin to work to drive the enemy out of Darfur permanently.

 

Of a greater concern would be the powerful criminal organizations, that were involved in everything from drug smuggling and human trafficking to assassinations. These people had plenty of cash, and were willing to spend it to keep the populations on their turf loyal. Sudanese security forces would begin a crackdown on these organizations.

 

In the South, open war would break out between Christian militias and the government-backed Janjaweed. With peace talks between the government and the Christians bogged down, it would appear that the south would enter yet another cycle of violence.

 

Also of concern was Chad, which had become a base for Sudanese militants. However, there was little the government could do about that but tighten security along the massive border.

Militants based in Chad would attack and destroy two Sudanese IFVs, before retreating back over the border. The government would also hear of possible militant activity in Eritrea. This was quite worrying, due to the area's proximity to the Sudanese capital, Khartoum. Government-backed Janjaweed fighters would also not be above operating out of bases in Ethiopia the former Central African Republic. 

 

Other than that, the front lines would be remarkably quiet.

It was a close call. The closest in the entire war.

 

Two columns of mercenaries based in Eritrea would manage to advance about 50 km into Sudan, in the direction of Port Sudan. Only a desperate series of air strikes and ground offensives would finally force the mercs back.

 

Upon launching an inquiry as to how a enemy force could advance so deeply into the country, it would be found that simply too much of the military had been deployed into Darfur or to the south. The army would re-deploy several units back into the north in order to prevent such an incident from occurring again.

 

This redeployment, however, would prevent Sudanese forces from launching a new offensive into Darfur, for the time being.

 

And then there was also the issue of who had hired the mercenaries. After some investigations, it would be found that a large criminal netwerk had decided that it didn't like the Sudanese government interfering in its business. The government would redouble its efforts to crack down on the deeply entrenched crime groups in Darfur and the south.

At long last, the offensive to destroy the militant forces in the rest of Darfur would begin. The militants would be able to hold their lines against the Sudanese assault, for the time being.

 

In the south, the fighting would reach the cities, with blood being spilled on the streets of Juba as Janjaweed and Christian militias fought street to street. This would be a surprise to many, as most of the fighting has been so far limited to the countryside.

Sudanese forces would finally break through the rebel lines. Moving quickly, they would be able to cut off the militants' line of retreat, leaving them surrounded and helpless.

 

In the south, the government would order several airstrikes into Juba in order to weaken the Southern militias. There would be some collateral damage.
