Sudan fighting resumes minutes after latest truce ends

Sudanese warring generals resumed fighting just minutes after a US and Saudi-brokered ceasefire expired, with renewed artillery exchanges rocking greater Khartoum early on Wednesday. Both sides accused each other of attacking the intelligence service's headquarters in the capital Khartoum in violation of the 72-hour truce. The conflict has already displaced over 2.5 million people, with over 550,000 fleeing to neighbouring countries. The United Nations has spoken of possible "crimes against humanity" in Darfur as the conflict has "taken an ethnic dimension." The UN has urged neighbouring countries to keep their borders open to Sudanese refugees.
