Fighting has continued in Sudan despite an internationally brokered ceasefire that was supposed to have come into effect late Tuesday. Forces loyal to dueling generals are battling for key locations in the capital and accuse each other of violating the truce. The fighting has left millions of civilians trapped with the UN warning that humanitarian aid workers and facilities are being targeted.
There was intense fighting in the Sudanese capital Khartoum over the weekend following the expiration of a ceasefire between the two sides battling for control of the country, with reports of attacks on civilians, rape and looting by armed men in the city, says France 24's regional correspondent Bastien Renouil.
Fighting intensified in several areas of Khartoum on Sunday after a ceasefire deal expired, residents of Sudan's capital reported, and activists said a new outburst of violence in North Darfur state had left at least 40 people dead.
Smoke billows over Khartoum as fighting between Sudan's army and the Rapid Support Forces intensifies. The United States and Saudi Arabia made a renewed push for truce talks between Sudan's warring generals as deadly fighting has raged into its eighth week. IMAGES
A 11pm to 5 am curfew's been brought in in Sudan's second city of Port Sudan. The extension of an often violated humanitarian truce delivers lulls in the fighing but only a trickle of aid.
