The Saudi foreign ministry said in a statement that it regrets the attacks and called on all parties in Sudan to resort to calm, adhere to the outcomes of the Jeddah talks and engage in political processes that can help reach a fair and comprehensive solution to the crisis.
Fighting in Sudan erupted on April 15 between army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and his former deputy Mohamed Hamdan Daglo, who commands the Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
On Thursday, US-Saudi mediated talks between Sudan’s army and the RSF in Jeddah achieved a minor breakthrough with the signing of an agreement that commits to protecting Sudanese civilians.
The ongoing Jeddah talks aim to secure a temporary ceasefire lasting approximately 10 days to facilitate crucial measures, such as the safe delivery of humanitarian aid and the withdrawal of forces from hospitals.
The talks will also discuss arrangements for further discussions to reach a permanent end to hostilities.
