JSAMF - The Joint Struggle Armed Movement Forces is a joint force of former 
Darfur rebel groups, principal among which is the Sudan Liberation Army led by 
Minni Minawi. Formed after the Juba Agreement, the Joint Force also includes JEM 
and the Gathering of the Sudan Liberation Forces (GLSF). Its principal power 
base is in Al Fasher and some rural areas of North Darfur. Under the terms of 
the Juba Agreement, the Joint Force was meant to be 12,000 strong, including 
6,000 former rebels and 6,000 government troops, but the government never 
assigned troops to take part in it. Since the start of the current war between 
Sudan Armes Forces and Rapid Support Forces, JSAMF have sought to remain 
neutral, leveraging their neutral position to escort commercial convoys from 
Port Sudan to the western regions of Kordofan and Darfur.

The Joint Force was incompletely formed at the time the new civil war broke 
out in 2023. Since then, it served principally as a mechanism for maintaining 
unity between the two largest Darfur movements, JEM and SLM/A-MM.
