Sudanese leaders have again postponed the signing of a final agreement to re-establish a civilian government as differences within military factions intensify.
Talks continued overnight with negotiations centered on a draft deal that was to be signed on today.
Sudan has been in political crisis since October 2021, when the army overthrew a civilian government that ousted long-serving leader Omar al Bashir in 2019.
Violent street protests followed, hundreds of people were killed and many more injured over the last one year and a half.
Last December, the military agreed on a roadmap to hand over power to civilians.
But the negotiations have stalled due to disagreements over the unification of the national army and the dreaded paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, led by the deputy head of Sudan’s ruling council Mohamed Hamdan Daglo.
The spokesman for the talks however said they were still determined to reach a consensus with the military.
