Sudan's military said it had sent negotiators to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, to “discuss the details of the truce that is being renewed”, while the ceasefire, which has been pledged by military and paramilitary forces that have been at war for three weeks, , has not stopped being violated.
Saudis and Americans have been mediating since the start of hostilities on April 15, which have left hundreds of people dead. The UN envoy to Sudan recently said the two warring sides had agreed to hold "technical discussions" for a truce to be observed.
General Mohamed Hamdan Daglo's Rapid Support Force (RSF) has not yet announced its position on these negotiations in Saudi Arabia.
