Sudan’s army suspended talks with a rival paramilitary force on Wednesday over a ceasefire and aid access, raising fears the six-week-old conflict will push Africa’s third largest country deeper into a humanitarian crisis. | Reuters
At least 15 people were killed and 30 injured after projectiles fell on a market in a dense southern Khartoum on Wednesday, the local neighborhood resistance committee said in a statement. It said the local Bashair hospital, one of the few still operating in the capital, was overwhelmed.
Army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, a career military officer, and RSF General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, a former militia commander known as Hemedti, have been locked in a battle for power since April 15. Neither side seems to have an edge. The RSF said in a statement late on Tuesday it was committed to the ceasefire “despite repeated violations” by the army.In a video released by the RSF on Wednesday, Hemedti’s brother and RSF number two Abdelrahim Dagalo called on army soldiers to desert and work together with the RSF.
The capital has seen widespread looting and frequent power and water supply cuts. Most hospitals have stopped functioning.
