Despite Signing of Declaration of Principles, Clashes Renew in Khartoum Between SAF, RSF

Clashes renewed in Khartoum between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and members of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), today, Saturday, in districts of the Sudanese capital, Khartoum.

Clashes renewed in Bahri (north) and Omdurman (west), while military aircraft flew despite the signing of a "declaration of principles" by the two sides in the Saudi city of Jeddah on Thursday.

News agencies said that violent clashes have renewed in Bahri and Omdurman, which has complicated the humanitarian situation.

The warplanes flew over Bahri and Omdurman, and fired shells at the gatherings of the "RSF", and the sounds of artillery and clashes with heavy and light weapons were heard in the eastern neighborhoods of the Nile.

However, on Friday, Saudi Arabia announced the continuation of the Jeddah talks between the two parties to the conflict in Sudan, with the aim of reaching a cease-fire agreement between them for about 10 days, under American-Saudi international monitoring, and then other consultations for a permanent settlement.

Since last April 15, large-scale clashes have erupted in a number of Sudanese cities between the army, led by Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the Rapid Support Forces, led by Muhammad Hamdan Dagalo "Hamidti", killing and wounding hundreds, most of them civilians.
