Sudanese representatives have arrived in Saudi Arabia's Jeddah to resume talks with the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), Sudanese government sources told Reuters Saturday, after three months of fighting between the army and RSF.
Previous talks in Jeddah facilitated by Saudi Arabia and the United States were suspended by both countries in early June after numerous cease-fire violations. Saudi Arabia and the U.S. have yet to confirm the resumption of talks between Sudan's warring factions.
Separately, a mediation attempt launched by Egypt began Thursday, an effort welcomed both by the Sudanese army, which has close ties to Egypt, and the RSF.
A series of cease-fires have failed to halt the fighting which broke out on April 15 as the army and RSF vied for power.
The conflict has seen more than 3 million people uprooted, including more than 700,000 who have fled to neighboring countries.
On Saturday, at least four civilians were killed and four injured in a drone attack that targeted a hospital in the city of Omdurman, Sudan's health ministry said, accusing the RSF of carrying out the attack.
