Sudan’s military leader Gen. Abdelfattah al-Burhan reiterated on Thursday his country’s rejection of Kenyan President William Ruto’s role as a mediator, saying the east African country harbors and support Rapid Support Forces (RSF) rebels.Sudan plunged into a deadly conflict on April 15 after the paramilitary RSF launched attack on various government and army positions in the capital Khartoum and in the northern city of Merowe where they thought to take control of the airport.
IGAD is the only international organization, beside the United States and Saudi Arabia, that are involved in efforts to bring the Sudanese leaders to negotiating table for peace ending of the violence which has killed around 200 people and displaced millions.
