The Sudan People’s Liberation Movement/Army (SPLM-N/A) led by Abdel-Aziz al-Hilu has extended a unilateral cessation of hostilities for three months.
In a statement released on Tuesday, al-Hilu said they decided the 3-month extension to show their “goodwill towards a peaceful resolution of the Sudanese conflict, and in order to give the ongoing peace talks an opportunity for success,”
He further said the three-month ceasefire “shall come into force W.E.F (With Effect From.) April 1st. 2020 up to June 30th. 2020.”
Talks between the transitional government and the SPLM-N al-Hilu are stalled over the latter demand to include secular state and seld-determination in the agenda of the peace talks.
