Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>Sudan’s de facto leader Abdel Fattah al-Burhan held talks on Saturday with Uganda’s veteran President Museveni on his latest diplomatic foray abroad.<\/p>\n

The Sudanese general was pictured meeting with Museveni at State House in the Ugandan town of Entebbe on what was described as a one-day working visit.<\/p>\n

“They deliberated on bilateral and regional issues,” said a brief statement from the Ugandan presidency.<\/p>\n

Sudan has been at war since April when fighting erupted between the regular army led by Burhan and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces commanded by his deputy-turned-rival Mohamed Hamdan Daglo.<\/p>\n

Clashes around Khartoum’s military headquarters — where Burhan had been holed up until last month — had seen a brief two-week respite before flaring again, with the RSF showering it with artillery fire, residents said Saturday.<\/p>\n

Eyewitnesses on the ground told AFP<\/b> they heard clashes in central Khartoum, with one resident saying the RSF “is firing heavy artillery” at army headquarters.<\/p>\n

From his new base in the Red Sea coastal city of Port Sudan, Burhan has since late August made six trips abroad in what analysts say is a diplomatic push to burnish his credentials in the event of negotiations to end the conflict.<\/p>\n

His first visit was to Egypt, followed by South Sudan, Qatar, Eritrea, Turkey and now Uganda.<\/p>\n

At least 7,500 people have been killed since the conflict broke out on April 15, according to a conservative estimate from the Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project.<\/p>\n

The war has uprooted more than five million people, including one million who fled across borders, according to United Nations figures.<\/p>\n

Neither side has been able to gain the upper hand in the conflict, with the army controlling the skies and Daglo’s fighters embedding themselves in residential areas.<\/p>\n

Witnesses have noted an increase in the intensity of air strikes, and consequently the civilian death toll, as the army seeks to regain control of parts of the capital.<\/p>\n

Burhan has been Sudan’s de facto leader since the ouster of longtime autocrat Omar al-Bashir in 2019, when he was appointed head of the Sovereign Council of military and civilian figures tasked with steering the transition to a fully-fledged democracy.<\/p>\n
