Reuters reported that “UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres is sending his Emergency Relief chief to Sudan amid the “unprecedented” situation there, as the country’s warring factions continue to fight despite saying they would extend a barely respected 72-hour ceasefire that was due to end at midnight on Sunday.”
The violent power struggle between Sudan’s rival military forces has entered its third week with tens of thousands of people caught in the crossfire.
A six-faltering ceasefire started at midnight on Sunday.
Efforts by foreign powers to mediate have failed to achieve a lasting truce, so far.
More than 500 people have been killed, and tens of thousands of people have been uprooted from their homes.
