An East African regional grouping plans to send three presidents to Sudan at the earliest possible time to reconcile the fighting rival military groups.
The Intergovernmental Authority on Development (Igad) agreed on Sunday to send the leaders of Kenya, South Sudan and Djibouti to the capital Khartoum.
It also called for an immediate cessation of hostilities between the warring parties in Sudan.
But with the international airport closed, it’s uncertain when any peace initiative can begin.
As we’ve been reporting, fighting between government forces and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) is continuing today despite pleas by the international community to warring parties to cease fire.
Kenya’s President William Ruto asked Igad leaders to take a firm position to restore peace in Khartoum.
