The head of Sudan's Rapid Support Forces (RSF), General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, said late on Monday (November 24) that his paramilitaries would immediately enter into a three-month humanitarian truce in its conflict with the country's armed forces.

Khartoum

General Mohamed Hamdan Degalo, leader of Sudan's Rapid Support Forces (RSF), announced a three-month unilateral humanitarian ceasefire in the ongoing conflict with the Sudanese army. This move follows recent international efforts, including a proposal by the U.S., UAE, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia (the Quad), to broker peace and address the humanitarian crisis in Sudan.

The ceasefire announcement comes after the Sudanese army rejected the Quad's mediation efforts and amid accusations against the UAE for allegedly arming the RSF, which the UAE denies. The conflict, which began in April 2023, has resulted in tens of thousands of civilian deaths, particularly in ethnically-based violence, and both RSF and army leaders remain under U.S. sanctions.

Sudan's RSF paramilitary says it will enter into ceasefire

The head of Sudan's Rapid Support Forces, General Mohamed Hamdan Degalo, said on Monday that his fighters will enter a three-month humanitarian cruise in their war with the Sudanese army. The announcement, which appeared to announce a unilateral ceasefire, came after U.S. President Donald Trump last week pledged to intervene to end the conflict that has plunged Sudan into famine. We hope the Quad countries will play their role in pushing the other side to engage with this step and with international efforts aiming to achieve the interests of the Sudanese people. Earlier this month, the U.S., the United Arab Emirates, Egypt and Saudi Arabia, known as the Quad, proposed a truce followed by peace talks. The RSF initially agreed, but then launched drone strikes on army positions. The paramilitary's announcement came a day after Sudan's army chief rejected the Quad's proposals and criticized the inclusion of the UAE as a mediator, which has been widely accused of arming the RSF. The Gulf state has denied such accusations and said it aims to stop the war. The RSF faces backlash over brutal civilian attacks after seizing Al-Fashir in late October, which cemented its control of the Darfur region. In a speech on Sunday, Sudan's army chief, General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, accused the U.S. of aiming to cripple his forces, while letting the RSF keep the territory it has seized. He also denied what he said were U.S. accusations of Islamist influence in his government. The war in Sudan, which broke out in April 2023 over disagreements on integrating the two groups, has killed tens of thousands of civilians, particularly in ethnically-based bloodshed. The RSF faces genocide allegations, while both Tagalog and Burhan are under U.S. sanctions.
