Sudan leader keeps mum on ceasefire despite unity call
Speaking on state TV on Friday morning, Gen Burhan said Sudan would come out of the fighting “more united and stronger”.
“We trust that we will overcome this crisis with wisdom and power, which protect the unity and security of our people and enable us to transition safely to democracy,” he said.
However, the military leader did not say whether the army would observe a 72-hour ceasefire announced by the RFS to honour Eid al-Fitr.
Sounds of gunfire were reported in Khartoum in the early hours of Friday, with the RSF accusing the army of staging a “sweeping attack” on the capital.
There have been a series of failed ceasefires since the violent power struggle broke out last weekend.
So far, at least 330 people have been killed and 3,200 others injured in the fighting, according to the World Health Organization.
An American citizen is confirmed to be among the dead, a US State Department spokesperson said on Thursday.
