In a recent development in Sudan, an army general has stated that a truce during the holy month of Ramadan will not be considered unless the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) vacate civilian areas. This announcement comes amidst ongoing tensions and violence in the region.

The RSF, a paramilitary group in Sudan, has been a key player in the country's political landscape. However, their presence in civilian sites has been a point of contention, with many accusing them of human rights abuses and excessive use of force.

The army general's statement indicates a firm stance on the issue, highlighting the importance of ensuring the safety and security of civilians during this sensitive time. The refusal to consider a truce without the RSF's withdrawal underscores the gravity of the situation and the need for immediate action.

As Ramadan approaches, concerns about the well-being of civilians in Sudan are heightened. The call for the RSF to leave civilian areas reflects a broader push for peace and stability in the region, emphasizing the need for all parties to prioritize the safety and rights of the people.

It remains to be seen how this development will impact the dynamics in Sudan and whether efforts towards a peaceful resolution will be successful. The coming days will be crucial in determining the path forward and the prospects for a lasting ceasefire during Ramadan.
