Sudan is embroiled in a civil war between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF), controlling the official provisional government under General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), which established a parallel government in July 2025 led by Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo. The SAF government amended the constitution in February 2025 to consolidate power, while the RSF coalition seeks decentralized governance in western regions. No elections have occurred amid the conflict, with legislative functions handled by a transitional authority.
