CAIRO (Reuters) - Sudan's sovereign council said on Thursday it would open the Adre border crossing for three months to facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid to citizens affected by a 15-month-long civil war.

The government halted aid deliveries through the border crossing in February, saying it was being used by the rival RSF faction to move weapons.
