Gunfire and explosions have been reported in Khartoum, Sudan’s capital, despite a 72-hour nationwide cease-fire brokered by the United States. The cease-fire was agreed upon by the Sudanese Army, led by Gen. Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, led by Lt. Gen. Mohamed Hamdan, with hopes of engaging in a peace process to end the conflict that has been ongoing for over a week. However, the clashes have continued, with residents reporting low-flying warplanes and loud blasts near their homes. Many are still fleeing the city in search of food and water.
