TL;DR Summary

Sudan's army and paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) failed to agree on a truce, leading to air strikes and artillery in the capital. A declaration of principles was signed in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, but both sides have yet to acknowledge the deal. The ongoing battles have led to at least 528 deaths and 4,599 injuries, with 200,000 people fleeing to neighbouring countries. The deal includes commitments to allow safe passage for civilians, medics, and humanitarian relief, and to minimise harm to civilians and public facilities. The UN and other aid agencies have suspended aid to Sudan, awaiting guarantees that their stores and staff will be safe.
