Sudan Ceasefire: ‘80% holding’
Sudan's latest ceasefire now appears to be holding despite early breaches of the deal.
It is the first truce to have been formally agreed and signed by both sides. However, there were reports of airstrikes and clashes in the capital Khartoum as it came into force on Monday evening and in the cities of Omdurman and Bahri, people said they had heard gunfire.
Moe Faddoul is in Khartoum. He told Newsday: “As I am talking to you, it’s quiet. I hope it lasts…I think it might be 80 percent holding.â€
