Ceasefire underway in Sudan as UK govt faces evacuation pressures
A 72-hour ceasefire between Sudan's two warring factions is under way as the UK government faces pressure to"not miss the window" of opportunity for evacuations and delivering urgent aid.
The two sides have not abided by several previous temporary truce deals - but both confirmed on Monday that they had agreed to the ceasefire. At least 427 people have died since the fighting erupted over a power struggle between the rival factions in the capital Khartoum 10 days ago, leaving millions of Sudanese citizens trapped.
Mr Blinken said the US would coordinate with regional, international and Sudanese civilian interests to create a committee that would oversee work on a permanent ceasefire and humanitarian arrangements.
