After weeks of brutal fighting that left hundreds dead, Sudan’s rival military factions have agreed to meet in person for the first time.
The “pre-negotiation” talks set to be held in the Saudi city of Jeddah between the Sudanese army and the paramilitary group Rapid Support Force (RSF) were organized by the U.S. and Saudi Arabia, both countries said in a statement.
The face-to-face meeting comes after three weeks of intense fighting over who will run the nation of Sudan that came to a boiling point on April 15 when the RSF took control of the presidential palace, the state TV station, the army chief’s home, and Khartoum International Airport.
