Sudan army-backed council to meet on US truce proposal: government source

PORT SUDAN: Sudan’s army-backed security and defense council is set to meet Tuesday to consider a US-backed truce proposal, a government source told AFP, just over a week after paramilitaries overran the key city of El-Fasher.
“The Security and Defense Council will hold a meeting today to discuss the US truce proposal,” the source said on condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to brief the media.
