The new ceasefire agreement between the two sides of the conflict in Sudan came into effect, and the situation in the capital circle was generally calm.
On June 10, local time, the 24-hour temporary ceasefire agreement reached between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Force came into effect. In the metropolitan area, which is composed of the capital city of Khartoum and its surrounding cities of North Khartoum and Omdurman, except for sporadic firefights and air strikes in some areas that morning, the situation was generally calm, social life was restored, and some buses began to run. Some residents took to the streets to buy daily necessities, while others left the capital circle for more stable areas. However, two bridges connecting North Khartoum and Omdurman and crossing the Nile were closed by militants, which caused a lot of inconvenience to local people.
Saudi Arabia and the United States, which are responsible for mediating the conflict in Sudan and supervising the ceasefire, issued a statement on the 9th, announcing that the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Force reached a new 24-hour temporary ceasefire agreement in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The agreement is scheduled to take effect at 6 o’clock on the 10th Khartoum time. (Reporter Zhao Yuanfang, General Desk)
