Khartoum -- Sudan is witnessing a sharp escalation in rhetoric from Muslim Brotherhood leaders, who have intensified their threats against Sudanese civilians and neighboring countries, fueling widespread anger and renewed accusations that the organization is deepening the nation’s crisis. 

Critics warn that the group is attempting to reopen Sudan to extremist activities reminiscent of its rule after seizing power in 1989 a period that left the country isolated for more than 27 years.

The latest wave of threats comes just days after a retired officer loyal to the Brotherhood vowed to strike six countries in the region. In a widely circulated video, senior figure Al-Naji Abdullah known as the “Prince of Tank Operators” during the southern war in the 1990s declared: “Our wish is to open fire inside the White House. 

As President Donald Trump and his intelligence agencies conspire against us, we will fight him and his spies inside the White House.”

Meanwhile, Brotherhood leader Yasser Obeidallah issued chilling warnings to Sudanese civilians who spearheaded the popular uprising that toppled the regime in April 2019, threatening them with “death” should they return to the streets. 

His remarks hinted at the group’s reliance on the military as its primary instrument of power.

These threats have coincided with discussions in the U.S. Congress, where speakers emphasized that Sudan’s ongoing turmoil is fundamentally linked to the presence and influence of the Muslim Brotherhood. 

The inflammatory statements have further fueled public outrage across Sudan, with many accusing the organization of dragging the country back toward the isolation and instability that defined its decades-long rule.
