Sudan ceasefire extended as remaining Britons told to head to airfield ‘quickly’ by foreign secretary

Despite a ceasefire agreement, fighting has raged in the region of Darfur, with gunmen looting hospitals and destroying medical equipment, razing aid compounds and trashing government offices, as battles continue across Sudan.

A ceasefire in Sudan has been extended for three more days despite continuing reports of heavy fighting in the capital Khartoum and the western region of Darfur.
