Sustained clashes and artillery fire have been reported in parts of Sudan’s capital Khartoum soon after the end of a 24-hour ceasefire that had brought a brief lull to eight weeks of fighting between rival military factions.
Witnesses say fighting resumed after the ceasefire expired at 6am local time on Sunday in the north of Omdurman, one of three adjoining cities, along with Khartoum and Bahri, that make up the capital around the confluence of the River Nile.
