The Sudanese government had announced on Friday, August 9, that it will send a delegation to Jeddah to consult with the United States concerning an invitation for ceasefire talks in Geneva to be held on Wednesday, August 14.
The talks are aimed to end a 15-month-old war between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) paramilitary.
The Geneva talks, which the RSF has acquiesced to attend, would be the first major attempt in months to mediate between the two warring sides in Sudan.
This is a developing news story. More details to come later….
