a better power struggle between 2 of its most powerful military leaders. water and electricity are disrupted in some parts of the capital. fighter jets helicopters in gun fives, uncertainty in a nation that's been transitioning from military to civilian rule at least 56 civilians have been killed. and more than half of those have been in the capital of cartoon. and nearly 600 people have been injured across the country . sedans army has ruled out negotiations with the rapid support forces which it is designated to rebel group. if morgan has the latest now from to the right, the heavy fighting spreads through whom extension between the 2, denise army and powerful paramilitary force will over into the streets. the army says it's defending itself and attacked by the rapid support forces across

the capitol. it's now does it anything before us as a rebel groups? now, we the army did not initiate any flight. we were present in our command and we were surprised with the attack. coupled with an assault on my residence, the army did not deploy or make any movement you army headquarters and presidential palace are under the control of the general command. we do not wish to see this country slipping into war. however, we must teach a lesson to any non regular malicious but the rapid support for to see their bases were attacked by the army. this battle will pave the way to a peaceful solution. all those criminals will stand trials. i can not give a time and a bit to the fighting, how we the we are edmond to end with the least of losses. the all flights have been cancelled. boom, international airport, where armed men are on the tarmac and rapid support forces. and so it state

television service to dan tv about i had to san one understand, oh, this was the moment the stations broadcast was cut. the fi think i think has been confined to the capital. there's been violence in north and south dar for west and north cord to find states as well as murder. we in northern sudan, both sides claim control of major facilities there and in other areas. but so far, and it's been hard to confirm who has the upper hand tensions between the army and the rocket support forces emerged months after a military takeover in 2021 and be heightened when talks to integrate the artist of into the army stalled. ideally seen various have been very angry actually i'm in rage and i see i see a 2 bed most of them share when you both of you, you have been in kosky all this great devolution and are you already committed? and i'm, since you conclude speaking in vietnam,

u. s. secretary of state anthony blinking said washington would continue to support to dance transition, to a civilian lead government. it's a fragile situation. there are other actors that may be pushing against that, that progress. but this is a real opportunity to finally carry for the civilian la transition. and one that we and, and other countries are trying to are to bolster people across to dan are bracing themselves for more fighting and new crisis and an uncertain future. he been morgan, alta 0 or 2. let's gates a live update from her. now in how to about, how is it now? it's about 11 o'clock in the morning. things still dangerous on the streets. yes, indeed. if you look at the streets of hudson considering the fact that it's the thought

of the week, the thought of the working league normally would be seen cars all over the streets . he'd be seen people walking, the streets are completely empty just like they were yesterday. and that's because of the continued a good containing fighting between the 2 sides. the sound of heavy artillery was heard overnight. it can still be heard in the early hours and up to now across her tomb. we can hear the fight, the jets flying over the skies in hub too. and you can see columns of smoke rising in various parts of the capital, including the northern part of the capitan and the southern parts. and this reports of fighting around the vicinity of the general command of the army. so it looks like this situation between the rapid support forces and the army is not de escalating despite calls for the 2 sides to and the fighting and try to negotiate their differences. in other parts of the country such as the eastern city, of course sudan. the army says that it has taken over control are of the iris have been there. they also reported that they have taken control of the iris of bays in

gabbard of state, both in the eastern part of sudan. and they say that they have been able to take control of some of the areas here and how to including in the city of on demand. so it looks like for the time being from what we're hearing and what we're seeing at where the smokes are rising from, that the armed forces seem to be getting a slightly upper hand over the record support forces. how is it here before civilians? frightening certainly, but also must be getting worried about getting supplies and so forth. yes, because this all happened all of a sudden and there was a lot of panic and this is going around the country. it's not just happening in a single district. it's not happening in a single state. this is happening countrywide, so many shops are closed. many fuel stations are closed, many bakeries are closed. people don't know where they're going to get their commodities from. and then there's the issue of access to medical services. many people have been injured nearly 600 people have been injured as a result of the ongoing fighting between the r f and the army. but many of them

can't access hospitals and when they do get to the hospitals, there's the issue of medical personnel shortage. and that's because even the doctors and the nurses can't get to the hospitals. because of the continuing fighting now to there has been deemed, has been announced as an official holiday, but not for these facilities such as, as the, the, the hospitals around the country. but we have seen a statement from the doctor syndicate saying that they do need access to those who are wanted at least 56 people have been killed. and all of this ongoing, as well as fighting between the 2 sides, making it very hard for people to access basic services and medical emergency services. roy who live there for moment. thanks very much here. morgan learned how to or the integration of the rapid support forces into the regular army has been one of the main demands of pro democracy groups for a civilian transition. last month taught between the paramilitary unit and the army, fail to reach an agreement. unit says it needed 10 years, but the army wants it done and to have it. val explains how the power military

force was formed that offered support forces upon military fight, as merely from dot for the city was created by former president omar bashir in 2013, to stabilize the war torn region in western sudan, and more broadly to consolidate his personal grip on power, he was concerned about any security institution being strong enough to overthrow and challenge him. so he allowed, you know, he allowed basically a proliferation of different armed groups and centers of power within the country. but the origin of the false goes back to 2003. that's when president of the she had created an arm of the tribal militia to crush a local rebellion in the west. a force became known as the gentle sedans come through la general update. the data behind was instrumental in creating and training both agenda wheat and later the us f. he worked in the field for jazz with his now dead, i from 100100 glue known as hannity,

the commander of the outer stuff. in 2019 the 2 men joined forces to overthrow a model the ship. hon headed the transitional military council and handed douglas served as his deputy. but the out assess, continued to grow in both sites and we buy some estimates. it now both $100000.00 test on it. it took on several roles including border security and maintaining law . and order cross with activists accused out of 5th of participating in the killing of 120 for the pro democracy professors in june 2019. but it's him at his aspirations for unrivalled political leadership in cartoon that led to discourse with his ally, elbow han, and paved the way for the current situation. difference over the terms of integration of the other stuff into the army intensified after the signing of a framework agreement that lay the foundations for the transitional period in december, 2020 to the failure of talks. these other issues finally led to what observers have

been warning about an all out military confrontation crisis group was warning i just 10 years ago, you know, while by sheer was still empowered that if he ever left our, one of the big concerns would be that he left behind such a mass in terms of the military insecurity that a huge risk was that these parties would themselves turn on each other as ever. it's the civilian population, but the, the price and impalpable fear of the current conflict may prove more deadly and more destructive than any sudan has witnessed in the past ahmed fine edition where there had been called for a restraint from the international community. the united nations secretary general antonie gutierrez and his special envoy to saddam have condemned the violence and court for an immediate end to the fighting. the arb league is a jewel size to protect civilians and prevent any further escalation. and the african union is pushing for an end to the fighting,

and the return to the negotiating table, they would, shin was deputy head of mission at the u. s. embassy in sudan, and he says the international community failed to read the early warning signs of potential conflict. the outbreak of fighting did catch the international community by surprise. the fact that the framework agreement was not being implemented on schedule was certainly an indicator that things were not going well. and that there could be difficulties. but they have this just kind of significant fighting and various parts of sudan all at the same time. i think those clearly surprise you, the idea will be to go back to the framework agreement, what, whatever pressure they can on all part is to return to the framework agreement. and ideally to implement it to the point part eventually results in a civilian government and the country. that concept has been pretty much

over the short term been destroyed. i don't, i don't see that happening anytime real soon. when you look for the rapid support forces, i guess most of it support from witches is western song all western sudan. in addition, they apparently have a significant military presence at merrill way on the injection border that couldn't pose horrific problems. even if the situation could be resolved in and around cartoon or along the nile. as to the head here in al jazeera, more detainees of be released in yemen, often negotiations between the boring sides plus, ah, celebrations and protests. as jimmy shuts down its last 3 nuclear power plant. ah.

saying that your up shouldn't always follow the position of us when it comes to dealing with china. and in dealing with taiwan, in particular, that raise has raised some concerns. so catherine collar neither french foreign minister is doing some explaining some damage control of this sunday evening. she is already tweeted out that at the g 7 is united on and having a free and open indo pacific, she says that would please be seen as a or a direct slight at china and also in support of taiwan. so they were trying to build some bridges there. there will also be talking on this sunday evening of their 1st working dinner about north korea. but obviously they arrive here with the crisis in sudan deepening, and we aren't getting comment, sir, from many of the foreign ministers, antonio, to johnny of italy's calling for military leaders, or to cease fire immediately. or with echoed by an alina burbock of germany, the german foreign minister sang. she is appalled by the casualties and calling for

the palmers. so and also they say that that, but they did that they have government is turning the country into a dictatorship. so they wanted to take control from the dodges and, and we don't want to like, this is very dangerous because if the kids are going to control every link, if it means it's not them already any more, it's big to on. we all frame and we not agree, and we're going to fight from that. this protest are taking place under the shadow of the recent pension and ongoing crisis in the counter. however, many of the protesters here are saying that the ongoing crisis has purposefully been triggered by the own government. and they said that there security doesn't come without in the market. miss white, this is not with
