The UN has called on Sudan's warring generals to lay down their arms for the Muslim festival of Eid, following the failures of several humanitarian truces in the five days since the fierce fighting began.

General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, better known as Hemedti - the commander of the RSF militia - said he was not opposed to a ceasefire... but neither he, nor the man who heads the Sudanese Armed Forces - General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan - seem to be in any mood to negotiate.

The conflict has claimed 330 lives and with both locals and foreign nationals trapped in their homes, there is little chance of evacuation for now.
