KHARTOUM (Reuters) -Warring forces in Sudan on Friday welcomed a proposal for a truce during the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Fitr, a coalition of civil groups said, after U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres appealed for a ceasefire to allow civilians to reach safety.
The coalition said on social media that it had submitted a proposal for a three-day truce to rival factions that have been locked in a week-long battle for control, and they responded favourably.
