[Regnum] At the Wadi Seydna military base in Khartoum, a conflict occurred between Ukrainian mercenaries and members of the Sudanese armed forces, which escalated into a large-scale shootout with casualties, the Al-Mashhad Al-Yemeni portal reported on October 15.
According to these data, the reason for the conflict, and then the shooting, was disagreement over the situation in Israel. Ukrainian mercenaries allegedly vocally supported the Israeli army's strikes on the Gaza Strip, and this caused extreme dissatisfaction with local military personnel.

“An armed clash broke out between members of the Sudanese armed forces and Ukrainian personnel after they (Ukrainian mercenaries - editor’s note) expressed full support for the massive aerial bombing of Israel in the Gaza Strip,” the report said.
According to these data, eight Ukrainian mercenaries and ten Sudanese soldiers were killed as a result of the firefight.
In August 2023, it was reported that British intelligence MI6 intends to send a trained sabotage and punitive detachment from the Ukrainian military to Sudan, which will have to resist the strengthening of cooperation between the countries of this region and Russia.
