It is time for a ceasefire in Sudan and a new way forward

What Happened

Sudan's conflict, ongoing since April 15, 2023, has killed tens of thousands and displaced millions. The author calls for an immediate ceasefire ensuring safety and basic services, followed by inclusive political process. The war followed a failed 2019 transition after Omar al-Bashir's ouster. The Rapid Support Forces, backed by UAE and with Darfur genocide history, lack legitimacy among Sudanese people. Infrastructure destruction and systemic violence persist under both RSF and Sudanese Armed Forces control.
