A power struggle between forces loyal to two rival generals has plunged Sudan into a spiralling conflict, with fighting raging across the country and its capital, Khartoum, paralysed by intense battles.
The violence pits army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan against Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, known as Hemedti, who commands the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF). It has forced tens of thousands of Sudanese people to flee, and governments worldwide have rushed to evacuate their citizens from the north-east African country.
