Earlier, the RSF too had said that the formal ceasefire agreement would be extended “in response to international, regional and local calls”. The deadly conflict between Sudan’s rival military forces have rumbled on for a third week despite warnings of a slide towards catastrophic civil war. Hundreds of people have been killed and thousands wounded. The parties have fought on despite a seriesof ceasefires secured by mediators including the US.
The situation in Khartoum, where the army has been battling RSF forces entrenched in residential areas, was relatively calm on Sunday, a Reuters journalist said, after heavy clashes were heard on Saturday evening near the city centre. The army said on Sunday it had destroyed RSF convoys moving towards Khartoum from the west.
The RSF said the army had used artillery and warplanes to attack its positions in a number of areas in Khartoum province. In an apparent bid to boost its forces, the army said on Saturday that the Central Reserve Police had begun to deploy in southern Khartoum and would be deployed gradually in other areas of the capital.
