With the beginning of a 3-day ceasefire between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support militia, the exchange of fire between the two sides stopped.
According to the report of Mehr news agency, quoted by Al Jazeera, a 3-day ceasefire between the Sudanese army forces and the rapid support militias has started since the morning of this Tuesday.
According to this report, a military source in the Sudanese army announced that the army has agreed to a 3-day ceasefire.
The Sudanese army also announced that this action was taken in response to the request of Saudi Arabia and the United States.
The Sudanese army also emphasized: Our agreement to the ceasefire is conditional on the rebels’ commitment to stop all hostile actions.
The correspondent of Al Jazeera also reported that the exchange of fire between the forces of the two sides has stopped after the start of the ceasefire.
The regional spokesperson of the US Department of State announced last night that the promises of the two sides involved in Sudan are not enough for a ceasefire, but that this ceasefire should also be adhered to.
He also added: “The international community should call the two sides involved in Sudan to a ceasefire. “Since the beginning of the crisis, we have emphasized the dangers of any foreign intervention in the situation in Sudan.”
At the same time, the spokesperson of the Pentagon has also announced that the Traxton destroyer is located near the port of Sudan and is waiting to receive orders if support is needed.
The Pentagon spokesman also stated that we oppose any foreign intervention that would lead to the escalation of the situation in Sudan. We are working with the State Department to provide surveillance and intelligence capabilities for the possible ground evacuation of all Americans from Sudan, and we have plans in place should the State Department request assistance in evacuating American citizens from Sudan.
Earlier, according to the World Health Organization, about 420 people died and 3,700 others were injured during eight days of conflict in Sudan.
