Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>South Sudan and Egypt on Sunday offered to mediate between the Sudanese army and paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) amid fighting between the two forces.<\/p>\n

This came during a phone call between Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi and his South Sudanese counterpart Salva Kiir Mayardit.<\/p>\n

South Sudan and Egypt are the two most direct neighbours to Sudan.<\/p>\n

A statement by the Egyptian Presidency said, \u201cThe two leaders called for an immediate cease-fire in Sudan and appealed to all parties to calm down, let the voice of wisdom and peaceful dialogue prevail, and uphold the supreme interest of the Sudanese people.\u201d<\/p>\n

The two leaders offered to \u201cmediate between the Sudanese parties as violence would only lead to a further deterioration of the situation, which may spiral out of control,\u201d the statement said.<\/p>\n

Armed clashes erupted Saturday morning in the capital Khartoum and its surrounding cities between the army and RSF fighters.<\/p>\n

While the RSF accused the army of attacking its forces south of Khartoum with light and heavy weapons, the military said, the paramilitary force was “spreading lies” and declared it a “rebel” group.<\/p>\n

Dozens of people have been killed and hundreds injured in the fighting, according to local medics.<\/p>\n

The dispute between the two sides came to the surface on Thursday when the army said recent movements by the RSF had happened without coordination and were illegal, with their rift centering around a proposed transition to civilian rule.<\/p>\n
