On Sunday, two Sudanese cities were targeted by airstrikes, according to witness reports provided to AFP. The attacks occurred a day after Sudan's army chief, Abdel Fattah Al-Burhan, publicly vowed to continue the ongoing military conflict against a rival paramilitary force.

The renewed fighting and Al-Burhan's defiant stance follow a recent United States visa snub and mounting international pressure for a ceasefire. Sudan has been gripped by widespread warfare since April 2023.
