Sudan''s generals battle for 3rd day; death toll soars to 185

Deccan Chronicle  

Khartoum: As explosions and gunfire thundered outside, Sudanese in the capital Khartoum and other cities huddled in their homes for a third day Monday, while the army and a powerful rival force battled in the streets for control of the country. “We couldn’t take them to a hospital or bury them.” In central Khartoum, sustained gunfire erupted and white smoke rose near the main military headquarters, a major battlefront. On Tuesday, Blinken told reporters in Japan that indiscriminate military operations are “recklessly endangering civilians, diplomats, including U.S. personnel, and humanitarian personnel.” Blinken said a convoy of clearly marked U.S. Embassy vehicles came under fire Monday, and that preliminary reports indicate the attackers were linked to the RSF. Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi said late Monday that Cairo was in “constant contact” with both the army and the RSF, urging them to halt the fighting and return to negotiations. Twelve hospitals in the capital area have been “forcefully evacuated” and are “out of service” because of attacks or power outages, the Sudan Doctors’ Syndicate said, out of a total of around 20.
