Sudan defense minister says army to keep fighting RSF after US truce proposal

PORT SUDAN: Sudan’s defense minister said on Tuesday that the army would press on with fighting the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces after the country’s security and defense council met to discuss a US proposal for a ceasefire. “We thank the Trump administration for its efforts and proposals to achieve peace,” Hassan Kabroun said in a speech broadcast on state television, adding that “preparations for the Sudanese people’s battle are ongoing.” “Our preparations for war are a legitimate national right,” he said, following the council meeting in Khartoum.
