[HIGHLIGHTS] The war forces 8 million Sudanese to flee, and Al-Burhan refuses to negotiate “abroad”

The United Nations said that the battles between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces led to the displacement of 8 million people. The head of the Sovereignty Council of Sudan, Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, stressed that negotiations to stop the war should take place inside the country.

The intensification of fighting in the cities prompted many Sudanese to seek refuge in neighboring countries. On December 21, a United Nations spokesman estimated that the conflict constituted “the largest displacement crisis in the world”
