The Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF; Arabic: القوات المسلحة السودانية, romanized: Al-Quwwat al-Musallaha as-Sudaniyah) are the military forces of the Republic of the Sudan. The force strength has been estimated at 109,300 personnel in 2011 (by IISS),[9] 200,000 personnel before the current war in Sudan broke out in 2023 (by the CIA),[10] and 300,000 personnel in 2024 (by Al Jazeera).[a][11]
In 2016–2017, the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) had 40,000 members participating in the Yemeni Civil War (of which 10,000 returned to Sudan by October 2019).[12] As of 2025, the SAF and RSF remain in armed conflict against one other in the ongoing civil war in Sudan.[13]
