NEW YORK, June 24, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of securities of Fulcrum Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: FULC) between March 3, 2022 and March 8, 2023, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”), of the important June 27, 2023 lead plaintiff deadline.

SO WHAT: If you purchased Fulcrum securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Fulcrum class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=15766 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than June 27, 2023. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually handle securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) the preclinical data submitted in support of FTX-6058 (a prospective drug for the potential treatment of sickle-cell disease) showed safety concerns regarding potential hematological malignancies; (2) the foregoing safety concerns increased the likelihood that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) would place a clinical hold on preclinical studies of FTX-6058; (3) accordingly, Fulcrum had overstated FTX 6058’s clinical and/or commercial prospects; and (4) as a result, defendants’ public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

Sudan conflict: Army outnumbered on Khartoum’s streets

The Sudanese army’s infantry battalions have hardly been present on the streets of Khartoum during the two months-long conflict that has raged in the country, leaving much of the capital under the control of the rival paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF).

This is despite the fact that the army is made up of about 200,000 soldiers, roughly twice the size of the RSF.

Yet the army is heavily outnumbered on the streets of Khartoum, as well as the two cities across the River Nile – Bahri and Omdurman.

RSF fighters were initially moving the three cities in their armed pick-up vehicles, but they now mostly do so in ordinary cars.

Huge numbers of people have complained on social media about the RSF stealing their cars from their homes. The suspicion is that the RSF is using them to avoid being hit by air strikes.

With its airpower being its greatest strength, the military has been constantly carrying out strikes to weaken the RSF. Although they are believed to have killed hundreds of civilians, they have not prevented the paramilitaries from advancing in Khartoum, Bahri and Omdurman.

In a serious blow to the army, RSF fighters carried out an assault earlier this month on al-Yarmouk, one of Sudan’s biggest military complexes, where arms were manufactured and stored.

While a fire raged at the complex for days, the RSF declared that it had seized control of it, which was confirmed by local residents. The military, however, has not confirmed the loss of the complex.

It launched a counter-offensive, but could only manage in briefly wresting control of a vitally important bridge that linked RSF fighters in Omdurman to those in Khartoum and Bahri.

The RSF is also in control of other key sites in and around the three cities, including:

the main oil terminal, which the paramilitaries have turned into their base

the state media’s headquarters, giving the RSF control of its radio airwaves, although the army has managed to retain control of the TV station by broadcasting from elsewhere

a large part of the presidential complex

much of the international airport, which has been shut since the conflict started.

The headquarters of the spy agency was also said to have been occupied by the RSF early in the conflict, but it is unclear who is currently in control of it.

The military is known to have held on to a few key places – the most important of which are its headquarters and the airbase in Wadi Saeedna, from where its fighter jets fly to hit the RSF.

Troops have dug long and deep trenches to prevent the paramilitaries from overrunning the two locations.

“Their attempt to attack us does not have any effect now. The shells they fire fall on trees, or are cold by the time they land on our side,” an officer said.

History of racism

About two million residents, out of around 10 million, have fled the once-peaceful cities, abandoning their homes, shops and offices. Some of them have been shelled and bombed, others have been occupied and ransacked, with air-conditioners and furniture among the items carted away by the RSF.

For some, the failure of the infantry battalions to make significant battlefield gains is not surprising, as Sudan is not a democratic state with a well-trained professional army.

The army – like many other sectors of society – is still bedevilled by Sudan’s history of racism, slavery and colonialism.

It dates back more than two centuries when Ottoman and Egyptian conquerors established an army of slaves.

Recruitment from mostly poor black African communities continued under British rule, and has remained so throughout the post-independence era. Some of the soldiers are, in fact, descendants of slaves.

Under the three decades-long rule of ex-President Omar al-Bashir, black Africans were rarely accepted in Sudan’s military college, with applicants required to mention their ethnic groups.

As a result, only a few have risen to senior ranks, with the army largely under the control of generals from the Arab and Nubian elites bordering Egypt.

Soldiers earn a mere $11 (£8.5) to $16 a month, in contrast with the generals who have enriched themselves by setting up companies and factories that have given them control of 80% of the economy, according to Sudan’s short-lived civilian Prime Minister Abdallah Hamdok.

Because of their low pay, some soldiers even joined the RSF to fight – at one point, as part of the Saudi-Emirati coalition in Yemen, in exchange for vast sums of cash.

RSF commander Mohamed Hamdan “Hemedti” Dagalo became a big gold trader when his forces took over Sudan’s most lucrative gold mines in 2017, and control of the border with Chad and Libya.

Sudan’s army chief of staff did not like it – he wanted the money from the gold trade to go to strengthening the regular forces, but Bashir had confidence in the RSF, giving Hemedti the nickname “Himayti”, meaning “My Protector”.

Training camps were set up near Khartoum. Hundreds of Land Cruiser pick-up trucks were imported and fitted with machine guns.

With an estimated 80,000 to 100,000 men and more than 10,000 armed pick-up trucks, the RSF became Sudan’s de facto infantry.

Arabs from Darfur form the backbone of the RSF. They appear to believe that it is now their turn to rule – especially after their pivotal role in helping the military fight the Darfuri rebels in the 2000s.

One of the RSF’s greatest strength lies in the fact that many of its “battalions” are made up of members of the same family or ethnic group, so they fight ferociously to protect each other.

In contrast, the defence minister has been forced to call for the mobilisation of retired officers and soldiers to beat back the RSF.

His appeal was met with derision by many Sudanese, who saw it as further proof of the army’s weaknesses.

The reality is that Sudan’s army, rather than fighting wars on its own, has long relied on militias. This is something it did in the decades-long civil war, which ended with South Sudan gaining independence in 2011, and more recently in Darfur, where Arab militias were accused of committing a genocide.

Now those militias – heavily armed by the military – have come back to haunt it, plunging Sudan into its latest crisis.

AL-RAHI: LET THE PARLIAMENT COUNCIL ELECT A PRESIDENT, FOR IT HAS TWO RESPECTFUL CANDIDATES

Maronite Patriarch, Cardinal Beshara Boutros al-Rahi, presided today over a Mass service at Saint Maroun’s Church in Tripoli. In his homily, the Patriarch touched on the stalled presidential elections, considering that Lebanon does not belong nor is subject to the whims of anyone, calling on the parliament to elect a president, as it has two respectable candidates at this moment. “Once again we reiterate to the political officials: Lebanon does not belong to anyone to dispose of it and its people according to his whim and interest…Lebanon belongs to its people, history, culture and civilization! We deplore and condemn this destructive behavior towards Lebanon, its institutions, its economy and its public money,” the Patriarch asserted. He added, addressing authority officials, “Let them remember the preamble to the constitution, which stipulates that Lebanon is a parliamentary democratic republic. Let the parliament council elect a president, as we have two respectable candidates.’
