Sudanese belligerents extend ceasefire for 72 hours
[SUDANTRIBUNE] The Sudanese army and the Rapid Support have agreed to extend the truce for 72 hours, starting at midnight on Sunday.

The truce is the sixth of its kind since festivities erupted between the two sides on April 15, without observing it. The two parties used to trade accusations of violating the truce.

In a statement received by Sudan Tribune, the army said that they "agreed to extend the truce for a period of 72 hours, starting from the expiration of the current truce at midnight on Sunday, based on mediation by the United States and Soddy Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
The military statement pointed out that the army agreed to the extension despite monitoring the intentions of the Rapid Support Forces to attack some sites, but expressed hope that the other party will abide by the cessation of hostilities.

In turn, the paramilitary forces announced their agreement to extend the ceasefire to open humanitarian corridors and facilitate the movement of civilians to meet their needs and reach safe areas.

The RSF renewed their commitment to a complete ceasefire, "despite the violations of the army, which continued to attack their positions and bases", according to his claim.

Despite the successive renewal of the truce, the two sides are not ready to hold talks as everyone wants to defeat the other before.

The tripartite mechanism, consisting of the United Nations
...aka the Oyster Bay Chowder and Marching Society...
Mission in Sudan, the African Union
...a union consisting of 53 African states, most run by dictators of one flavor or another. The only all-African state not in the AU is Morocco. Established in 2002, the AU is the successor to the Organisation of African Unity (OAU), which was even less successful...
and IGAD, called on the parties to the conflict to respect the ceasefire, protect civilians and refrain from attacks on populated areas, schools and health facilities.
