The two sides said in the joint statement that the two sides to the conflict in Sudan had not pledged not to seek military gains before the start of the ceasefire on Monday.

The statement said that the representatives of the Monitoring and Coordination Committee worked to “include the leaders of the two parties in Sudan to speak about the allegations of ceasefire violations”.

On Tuesday, the US State Department said it was discussing with the Sudan Armistice Monitoring Group, which was formed in Saudi Arabia, violations of the ceasefire agreement between the military Sudanese and the Rapid Support Forces.

State Department spokesman Matthew Miller told a press conference that both sides to the conflict in Sudan were being contacted, noting that the United States had the means to pressure both sides in the conflict in case of violations.

Sporadic clashes broke out between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces in Omdurman and parts of the capital, Khartoum, despite the entry into force of a new seven-day humanitarian truce.

For its part, the United States announced the allocation of humanitarian aid worth $254 million to Sudan and neighboring countries.
