Sudan’s RSF agrees to US proposal for humanitarian ceasefire

Sudan’s paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) has agreed to a US proposal for a ceasefire, it announced in a statement.

The war began in April 2023 after the Sudanese army and RSF, then partners, clashed over plans to integrate.

The US said on Tuesday it was working with other nations to end the conflict.

It followed reports of mass killings during the fall of the city Al-Fashir, which was captured by RSF.

It had been the army’s last holdout in the region of Darfur, making its capture a key milestone in the civil war.

That gave RSF de facto control of more than a quarter of the territory.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said: “The United States has actively engaged in efforts to bring about a peaceful resolution to the terrible conflict in Sudan.”

Their focus remains on accuracy, historical integrity, and the preservation of events and individuals whose significance might otherwise go unrecorded.
