Sudanese capital under siege as conflict escalates.

Thousands of civilians have fled Sudan's capital, Khartoum, as fighting between the Sudanese military and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) continues for a fifth day. Witnesses reported people leaving the city in cars and on foot, as gunfire and explosions rocked the area. The exodus follows Tuesday's collapsed ceasefire between the warring factions. Meanwhile, foreign nations are trying to evacuate their citizens, with Japan and Tanzania considering missions to evacuate their citizens. The death toll caused by the fighting is unclear, but the Central Committee of Sudanese Doctors (CCSD) said on Tuesday that at least 174 civilians had been killed in the violence.
