Is Sudan on the path to irreversible fragmentation? | Inside Story

Sudan has been struggling with a devastating conflict for more than two years.
Now it faces yet another challenge.
The paramilitary Rapid Support Forces has announced a parallel government to rival the one led by the army chief.
The African Union has rejected the move and the army has dismissed it as a desperate attempt by the RSF to cling to power.
But analysts say the move carries a real risk -- one that could further divide an already fractured country.
So how will this new power struggle play out -- both inside Sudan and more widely?
And how could it affect the Darfur region, where the RSF still wields control?
