Fierce fighting across Sudan has entered a second day as months of tensions between a paramilitary group and the country's army erupted into violence.
"The Rapid Support Forces control more than 90 percent of strategic sites in Khartoum," Dagalo said in an interview with Sky News Arabia, referring to his paramilitary group. Medical sources at a hospital in central Khartoum told CNN Saturday afternoon the hospital has received dozens of wounded civilians and military personnel in the last several hours.
The African Union also issued a statement urging "the political and military parties to find a fair political solution to the crisis." "The major parties in Khartoum, some weeks ago reached a very important framework agreement on how to proceed with a transition to civilian government. And there's been real progress in trying to move that forward," Blinken said during a news conference in Vietnam.
A CNN investigation also uncovered another link between the two men: their involvement in Russia's exploitation of Sudan's gold resources to fund its Ukraine war, with Dagalo's forces also being key recipients of Russian training and weaponry.
