Sudan's capital battle threatens Darfur war resurgence.

Battles between Sudan's rival military leaders in the capital city of Khartoum have spread to the Darfur region, raising fears of a reawakening of the two-decade-old conflict that killed 300,000 people and displaced millions. Local mediation has helped cool the strife in the main cities of Nyala and al-Fashir, but shelling and looting have continued in the town of Geneina. The conflict has also raised concerns of a potential international knock-on effect, as Darfur borders four countries that are themselves unsettled by internal conflicts.
