The Sudanese army on Wednesday suspended its participation in US- and Saudi-brokered ceasefire talks accusing its paramilitary foes, RSF, of failing to honour their commitments.

The mediators of the talks in the Saudi Red Sea city of Jeddah have acknowledged repeated violations of the truce by both sides but have so far held off imposing any sanctions in the hope of keeping the warring parties at the negotiating table.
