Fears are growing that the violence could lead to a wider conflict.
Fighting in Sudan between forces loyal to two generals threatens to turn into a protracted conflict.
The violence follows weeks of power struggles between army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and his deputy, Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, also known as Hemedti – the commander of the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
Fears are growing that this could be the start of a much wider conflict.
Outside forces further complicate the situation, with both sides receiving support from regional and global powers.
So, how will this conflict affect Sudan’s future?
