Sudan's army chief General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan was seen Thursday outside his headquarters for the first time since fighting erupted more than four months ago with paramilitaries, army videos showed.
Some of the footage filmed before dawn and posted on the army's Facebook page showed Burhan speaking to soldiers, with the caption indicating that he was at the Wadi Seidna air base north of Khartoum.
