Negotiators from the Sudanese army and Rapid Support Forces meet for a new round of UN-backed discussions. The talks, hosted by Saudi Arabia, aim to secure a lasting ceasefire and address the worsening humanitarian crisis in the country. Millions of Sudanese have been displaced by the conflict, with the UN warning of imminent famine in some regions. The international community has expressed cautious optimism about the resumption of talks, while also urging both sides to uphold previous ceasefire agreements. A successful outcome would provide much-needed relief to the civilian population.
