Short-term effects include headaches and potential loss of consciousness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The former undersecretary also expressed concern over the fire\u2019s impact on air, water, and soil, as well as the risk it poses to nearby facilities, such as strategic warehouses, power stations, pipeline stations, distribution companies, and a petrochemical plant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Exchanging accusations<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sudanese.armed.forces\/posts\/pfbid0tPfaqvTtWR2W1zn63FbHAcnPEibuAn1zPUQeCCK4Xsyeqvzs1k1FSq4WKAcTdJhl?rdid=3aFopA7NKxTe4gcN\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">statement<\/a> yesterday, the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) accused its rival, the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), of deliberately setting the refinery ablaze in a \u201cdesperate attempt to destroy the country\u2019s infrastructure\u201d after failing to seize its resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Conversely, the RSF alleged that Sudanese Air Force bombed the refinery with barrel bombs, destroying critical facilities. The RSF described the attack as a \u201cwar crime\u201d and a violation of international humanitarian law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Basha Tebeig, an advisor to the RSF commander Mohamed \u2018Hemedti\u2019 Dagalo, called the incident a \u201csystematic attack\u201d on Sudan\u2019s infrastructure. He accused SAF warplanes of targeting the refinery, describing it as a breach of the rules of warfare that prohibit targeting civilian and strategic facilities, in a <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Elbashatbaeq\/status\/1882417917285028094\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">post on X<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sudan\u2019s Emergency Lawyers group held both parties responsible for the fire, saying it \u201cviolates the economic and social rights of the Sudanese people\u201d, in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/100091728225497\/posts\/539873125746957\/?rdid=7sc0nhoLx1O0df2j\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">statement<\/a> yesterday. The group said the SAF bombed \u201cthe only remaining warehouse controlled by the RSF\u201d on Thursday morning, completely destroying it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Emergency Lawyers pointed out that the RSF had been exploiting the refinery since May 2023, using its output to support military operations and selling fuel on the black market. The SAF\u2019s airstrikes during 2023 caused catastrophic damage, including the shutdown of the refinery\u2019s main gasoline production station in June 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The SAF claimed on Wednesday to have encircled the refinery, taking control of key positions, including the military manufacturing plant to the north and el Jeili crossing located 21 kilometres to the south. The RSF denied this claim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Sudan War Monitor<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/sudanwarmonitor.com\/p\/gerri-refinery-battle-intensifies\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reported<\/a> earlier today that the SAF is advancing towards the refinery from the northern and the southern axes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Strategic refinery<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the conflict began, the Jeili refinery has suffered repeated attacks, but today\u2019s fire is the largest to date, producing vast clouds of smoke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A few days after the war erupted in April 2023, the RSF took control of the site. Seven months later, the Sudanese Air Force\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dabangasudan.org\/en\/all-news\/article\/sudan-warring-parties-exchange-accusations-over-el-jeili-oil-refinery-blast\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reportedly bombed<\/a>\u00a0the refinery. It was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dabangasudan.org\/en\/all-news\/article\/sudan-war-destruction-of-el-jeili-refinery-may-lead-to-acid-rain\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">bombed again<\/a> in late May 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The refinery ceased operations in October 2023 due to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dabangasudan.org\/en\/all-news\/article\/sudan-oil-fields-crippled-by-large-scale-sabotage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">disruptions in crude oil supply<\/a> from fields in West and South Kordofan, many of which are under RSF control. Radio Dabanga previously reported on incidents where armed men\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dabangasudan.org\/en\/all-news\/article\/rpg-attack-on-sudan-s-balila-oil-field\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">launched rocket<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dabangasudan.org\/en\/all-news\/article\/grenade-attack-targets-sudan-oil-field-workers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">grenade attacks<\/a>\u00a0on an oil field in West Kordofan, and intimidated workers with\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dabangasudan.org\/en\/all-news\/article\/sudan-oil-field-attackers-threaten-workers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">leaflets<\/a>\u00a0reading \u201cleave with your family before you perish.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The refinery plays a critical role in Sudan\u2019s oil industry. Built in 1997 and operational since 2000, the refinery\u2019s design capacity is 100,000 barrels per day. Its products are valued at $5.8 million per day. However, the conflict has significantly reduced its output.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cUnder normal conditions, it produces approximately 10,000 tonnes of gasoline, 4,500 tonnes of benzene, and 800,000 tonnes of cooking gas, meeting 45 percent of Sudan\u2019s petroleum needs\u201d, former energy undersecretary Hamed Suleiman told Radio Dabanga. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Located 70 kilometres north of Khartoum, El Jeili oil refinery is a joint venture between the Sudanese government, represented by the Ministry of Energy, and the China National Petroleum Corporation. It is connected to the Bashayer export terminal on the Red Sea via pipeline and supplies a petrochemical plant with raw materials for Sudan\u2019s plastics industry.<\/p>\n<div
