Sudan's Fragile Ceasefire Shattered by Ongoing Violence and Shortages.
TL;DR
A new three-day ceasefire brokered by the US and Saudi Arabia in Sudan has been shaken by fighting, as aid agencies raise alarm over the humanitarian situation in the country. Multiple aid agencies have had to suspend operations and dozens of hospitals have been forced to shut down. The UN refugee agency said it was gearing up for potentially tens of thousands of people fleeing into neighbouring countries. Calls for negotiations to end the crisis in Africa’s third-largest nation have been ignored.
