TL;DR Summary

The Sudanese army and rival forces have agreed to a temporary, 24-hour cease-fire after four days of fighting that has left over 185 people dead and more than 1,800 wounded. The U.S. Embassy convoy was attacked on Monday, and preliminary reports link the assailants to the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), the paramilitary group battling Sudan’s military. The violence has raised the specter of civil war just as the Sudanese were trying to revive the drive for a democratic, civilian government after decades of military rule.
