TL;DR Summary

Former Sudanese politician Ahmad Harun, who is wanted for alleged crimes against humanity by the International Criminal Court (ICC), has confirmed that he and other former officials are no longer in jail. A ceasefire between Sudan's army and a rival paramilitary group still largely appears to be holding, but doubts remain about both parties' commitment to a lasting peace. Reports of a prison break at Kober, where Harun and former President Omar al-Bashir were serving sentences, have also emerged. Meanwhile, hundreds of people have been evacuated from Sudan by other nations.
