12:04 am
to a cease fire for 3 hours on humanitarian grounds, starting at 4 pm local time. that was violated an hour later, the pause in fighting targets of those who have been trapped in places like hospitals and schools since saturday. many were cut off from food and drinking water as fighting between the army and the rapid support forces killed dozens and injured hundreds more. fighting also took place in residential areas, area heavy fighting, then it blocked off by soldiers and there's gunshots and snipers. and i'm from here. you can't see any, any dead bodies, but i have i, i friends who are in that zone and they can't leave their house. the fighting has spread to the eastern city of port sedan under man and body disrupting energy and what a supplies. hospitals are in lockdown with him on your source. if a don't to worry even the even the doctor is going to lead the hospitals. i dont be
12:05 am
reach the hospital. even even the ambulance, even the humblest and look move in the streets for the violence began on saturday after weeks of tension between army chief up and for the 100 han and his deputy mohammed ham dan douglas, commander of the rapid support forces. each leader is accusing the other of starting to fight and refusing to negotiate the united nations african union. the united states and regional leaders are calling for an end to the hostilities their concern. it could become a full scale war and possibly spill over into neighboring countries. the main priority that that's really shared by all of the country is to prevent these from moving into a blue civil war. we're close to that, but when no one, no really at that point the because because it's going to show what i was down, the knew that the device vision of a civil war will lead to so many issues on illegal migration or if you just flowing
12:06 am
out of the into countries that's already very fragile countries and it's u. p. issues it us well by the growing international pressure to stop the fighting an attempt at the fire. it's unclear if these 2 leaders are willing to put aside their differences and commit to talks. he been morgan ultra 0 to me and the little earlier have a morgan gavers vis update on developments in cartoon well in the capital there. so conflicting reports with regards to who controls what, what we do know that there are s f troops around the presidential palace. it's not clear if they have full control of that and the, even that a symbolic there. the presidential palace is where the offices of the presidents are the head of the ruling council as and it's not where his residence is. then there's the issue of the general command of the i'm headquarters in the early hours of sunday morning, there was heavy bombardments and heavy fighting around the vicinity of the general command. and even now, more than 12 hours later,
12:07 am
we can still hear the sound of fighter jets flying over the skies of harpoon. we can still hear the sound of anti aircraft missiles being fired, and it's not clear from which direction they're coming at. now this is a very unusual situation, fighting rarely, if ever has reached the capital of sedan, it's usually in the peripheries. so people here are not prepared to deal with this kind of situation. when it started on saturday, they thought it was going to be just like any other day before they heard the gunshots and the heavy artillery being fired. many of them did not take rec cautionary measures needed, and they did not store extra food. they did not store extra drinking water and then there's the issue of lack of sirens. they don't know when the air strikes are coming. they have to rely on their own ears to be able to see a hear, the sound of the fighter jets in the sky. and try to take cover, and even when it comes to the issue of cover, there are no safety shelters in the capital her to him again because the fighting does not happen to capital. it usually happens in the peripheries of the country,
12:08 am
or the regional african block, the into governmental authority on development plows to send the president. so can your serves who dana djibouti as soon as possible to mediate between sedans, warring parties, canyon president, william router's office, said on twitter that he's consulting with regional leadership to support dialogue. the african union has called for an end to hostilities and also plans to send representative to suit donald an immediate cease fire mission, pseudo former prime minister abdullah ham dock says there should be no foreign intervention in the dispute. and he insisted that could be no return to dictatorship. a do the loft, i. e to the i call for denying any for an intervention and sudanese affairs. we asked the international community to have a positive role to support the return of political dialogue. and i invite once again, the military and the rapid support forces to hold negotiations. now to solve the disagreements that have led to this situation, whatever happens to day after the change of april
12:09 am
2019 things will never be the same again to them. we have said good bye to dictate that she whatever we can have verizon, we can have setbacks, but will never be defeating for sedans, national army is considered one of the strongest in the horn of africa, where the rapid support forces are also a powerful paramilitary groups just how do they square up? the sudanese army has about 2 105000 pers known its ranks, including some 100000 active duty soldiers and his air force as a 191 aircraft, one of its biggest strengths. there's no confirmed information about the strength of the rapid support forces, but is estimated to have 100000 troops and about 10000 vehicles. mostly
12:10 am
4 wheel drives carrying weaponry like anti aircraft gums and canons and a light maneuverable in urban settings. rug makai is the editor of african arguments where she focuses on the political economy of sudan and the wider region . she joins me now form cartoon on the line that we've been looking at. a live images of the sky line of cartoon. clearly plumes of smoke and fire visible to the naked eye of the cameras. there. what is the situation where you are in the city at the moment when it comes to this conflict and canal and the situation is in great air for almost 2 full days. now we've been in an, an under heavy attacks and we can hear all day and we'll and proceed without stop. the sounds are and gunshots off air. what seems to be en,
12:11 am
dash cares being fired. we also hearing and, and what seems to be make fighters above the heads. and the distant sound of bombs being dropped. so between all the, all these can even a different kind of weapons and heavy utterly. they are going off everywhere signals heinously. and there isn't a moment of quiet and the effects on and, you know, quite insidious or, you know, an mental health or it's, it's raising our anxiety. we don't know what's going on. we don't know where the voices, i say the sounds are coming from an end. and obviously there's no communication from, from the state or any authority as to and what's going on. exactly right. how are people staying across what is happening? they're given that we're hearing reports of the internet has been partially closed out, or at least completely shut down in some areas in the power or as you've are recorded,
12:12 am
as is intermittent in some places. yes. so the vision of service and is kind of, you know, err, sporadic and kind of shoddid. again, we don't understand why some neighborhoods have access to the city while others. dan's before i understand why some networks are able to provide their sustainable and internet access while others can't. and again, and people are speculating. it seems that because this conflict has kind of erupted all of a sudden without prior kind of a keep clear communication from the state or from the authorities and civil servants. while you've been in charge of the services have kind of abandoned the coasts and taken to hiding, leaving, you know, these can have, you know, service outposts, erm and unmanaged. i think the army or i'm sorry, go ahead. what i'm saying?
12:13 am
yes. where i'm staying, we've not had an extension for almost 2 days at once, or is it is a trickle, or we sometimes have internet sometimes down. so it just all depends on the moment in the low regarding this, so the several hour long window humanitarian window to allow civilians to escape the area. we know, according to our correspondent that so it may not have been stuck to very religiously that it may not have lasted very long. but did you see any evidence of tool of civilians being able to leave embattled areas? so i've seen some accounts for the 1st of 1st of all to begin read in this window that supposedly sorry from 4 p. m and loss only an hour after break in a fast has actually not been here to. we can still hear the sounds of heavy artillery kind of raging even during that kind of an edge, a small window. and from what i've heard, and i have read the account of people who have kenneth, you know,
12:14 am
and attempted to use this humanitarian window. the kind of accounts that they are provided weren't really kind of encouraging. so some were actually able to leave the place that they were at and make it to their final destinations. but they were stopped at multiple checkpoints, by what seems to be arissa personnel. they were kind of asked to disembark from their cars. the vehicles were searched, they were not treated humanely. there was always a risk of being either kind of assaulted or shot at i have heard a heard accounts of people who despise kind of, you know, and here in to the guidelines of the check coins. there were still fired at and so again, it's not, i mean, despite what claims both sides and the humanitarian kind of community who broke with that he's fire, that suggest or claim doesn't seem to have kind of actually materialize or on the
12:15 am
ground on these terms of rug are we really, really appreciate you taking the time to talk to us. this must be an incredibly challenging situation for you. and many others in cartoon rug mccauley, editor of africa, arguments to begin a fast enough where at least 40 people have been killed in an attack on a military unit. 6 soldiers and 34 civilian volunteers, hired by the military to fight on groups were killed. now, while he grew up in northeastern coo hill gas region, at least 33 other people were injured, no group has claimed responsibility. frickin'. a fossa has been battling arm groups linked to al qaeda and i still for years the violence which triggered to ministry cruise last year has killed more than 10000 people and displaced 2000000 more. on thursday, the john t o declared a general mobilization say it would give the state all necessary means to combat such attacks. so thank either quasi to sooner it's

12:19 am
place we were to eat with one of the conditions. and during those visits, we were able to check if they had any special needs. if they were aware just to explain to them the creation and also to make sure that they were, will pay to be. and then when they arrived, we also will give them the trinity to call their families. and they will forget a small dock for time to bring the new police in india are investigating the killing of a former politician and his brother was shot dead live on television that he can shop on into a targeted while under police escort in to pradesh. state on saturday, there was no way to the hospital when 3 gunman pretend to be journalists, find them at close range. the suspects are in custody. he whose son was also recently shot dead, was a convicted criminal, jailed in 2019 for kid. nothing. really. the people who were killed were
12:20 am
brought from medical checkups as per the mandatory legal requirements, and they were members of the media around who are interviewing them. according to primary information, 3 men came posing as media personnel and started firing. 3 people have now been arrested and they'll being interrogated. and artic and usher of died in this incident. sunday can pause, he has to have hard news magazine. he says the shooting could have significant political consequences. manner in which it was done shows that there were certain gaps in policing closely. you. these people that bought both, both of them will be not used for that quality murder or formation. or they were made to walk and distributed, open them to any attack that they have. they can please send me on hindsight, you can see that it could have been the plan. but the fact of the matter is that both of them were criminals. with the long arm long list of programs that they had committed, especially was clear at quite a bit and nobody's really shedding tears with them. in fact, the,
12:21 am
the cheapest of the state has built a reputation for taking on the muslim op here. but this is a major setback to his impression that he's protecting law and order. i mean, there is a sense that vigilant justice has been celebrated with his sub brilliant wrong because mister yorkie was the chief minister, aspires abroad, has dreams of becoming the prime minister of this country. and this will not go down very well with whatever happened. the mexican army is searching for gunmen who stormed a resort, killing 7 people, including a 7 year old child. the attack took place in the small town, of course, and their gonna auto state region in central mexico, notorious for drug related violence. rival, drug cartels have been battling for control of traffic and trafficking routes for several years. another person is being treated in hospital for serious injuries, following the attack or now joined by mike vehill of the former chief of
12:22 am
international operations for the drug enforcement administration. welcome to the program. so let me start by asking you, is mexico safe? would you advise people to travel to mexico, for instance, through 1st spring break celebrations? for instance? well, many people asked me about going to mexico for spring break or on vacation, and i always advise them that it is not a safe place because mexico in recent years has been a wash with court l. violence literally in every state in mexico. so if they do go on vacation, i would advise them to look at travel advisories, put up by the u. s. department of state and look at those travel advisories before they make any application plants. how multifaceted is this violence? i mean, is this deliberately aimed at tourists,
12:23 am
or is this violence between rival gangs? what motivates it? most of it is between rival gangs or against that, you know, mexico security forces. so the current kelsey campbell's or me and that as your call, you know, and don't do anything surgically in terms of violence. many times a go hunting or rival gang members in public places and go in and just spray the prior establishment as they did in this case and try to kill the rival gang member. but, you know, they end up killing a lot of torres or innocent individuals that happened to be at that location. it does beg the question, of course, what all of this does from mexico image as a tourist destination? do you get the impression that the mexican police so on top of this now,
12:24 am
really because the mexican president established a policy hans and not gunshots in this is a policy not really confronting the current pals. and therefore, the court pals in mexico right now are operating with greater impunity and literally no respect for the rule of law. and this has greatly increase violence in mexico, so they are badly for control territory drug routes, maritime boards, where the important precursor, chemicals from china, where the manufacturer of synthetic broad sense is methamphetamine. and then all that we've seen right, very recently from one of our reports from our correspondence and all that long ago, heavily on police patrolling beaches in today's hot spots like can coon, for instance, is hardly an inviting scene. if you, there is
12:25 am
a tourist to think that the mexican authorities are scratching the surface here that simply trying to send the right signal to tourists or they all of that actually makes a difference. well they, they do go into some of the tourist sites like con cool lou, and what have you. but they don't really operate in many areas in mexico. so the current pals control launch swash territory in the country of mexico, the operator, and virtually every state in mexico. keep in mind that these are transnational criminal groups that operate may in many parts of the world. for example, as you know, a current gal and the new generation current operate in 6 of the 7 continents around the world. all right,
