Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan held telephone calls on Tuesday with Head of Sudan's Sovereign Transitional Council Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the Leader of the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces in Sudan, Gen. Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, better known by his nickname Hamedti.

The talks highlighted the latest developments in war-torn Sudan.

During his conversation with the rival Sudanese parties, the Saudi Minister emphasized the need that all sides abide by the truce in order to allow the resumption of humanitarian works, protect the relief workers and civilians, and to preserve safe humanitarian corridors.

Farhan reiterated Saudi Arabia’s calls for calm and for prioritizing Sudan’s national interest.

He said that rival parties should stop all forms of military escalation and resort to a political solution that guarantees restoration of stability and security to Sudan and to its brotherly people.
