Sudan's army chief, Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, has met with Qatar's emir in his third trip abroad since war broke out between his country's rival military factions in April. Burhan, who in recent days also visited Egypt and South Sudan, is seeking to drum up diplomatic support and legitimacy for his rule.
Burhan's troops are fighting the rival paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF). He's spent months under siege inside the military headquarters in Khartoum, remaining in Sudan until late August.
