Kirby told a press conference, “The level of violence in Sudan has decreased due to the armistice and the ceasefire, but the situation in Sudan remains fragile.”
He added, “We call on both parties to the conflict in Sudan to continue to respect the ceasefire.”
Kirby continued, “The U.S. administration helped evacuate nearly a thousand Americans from Sudan, and President Joe Biden led the continued facilitation of American exit from Sudan by air and land.”
He explained that Washington “is committed to securing capabilities related to reconnaissance and exploration to secure the routes taken by departures.”
Kirby stressed that “it is difficult to ensure the exit of Americans from Sudan without a decrease in the level of violence in Sudan”, then added that “the security situation may not be conducive to facilitating evacuations”.
And the American official added: “No one wants to see the fighting in Sudan continue or expand. We are focused on the continuation of the ceasefire in Sudan and its full implementation”.
The conflict between the army and the Rapid Support Forces in Sudan has entered its third week, amid fears it could spread to a wider area in light of the fragile truces that are frequently violated.
