Strikes hit Sudan cities as army chief remains defiant after US visa snub

On Sunday, Sudan experienced two drone strikes in city, the first attack on Wad Madani since its recapture last year, while Nyala, the RSF's stronghold, faced two explosions. These strikes occurred a day after army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan declared his determination to continue the conflict against the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), despite pressure for a ceasefire and the US denying Burhan a visa to attend the UN General Assembly.

The US visa snub was reportedly linked to US efforts to broker a three-month truce, which Khartoum rejects, fearing the paramilitary force would use the time to regroup.
