Egypt is set to host a summit of Sudan’s neighbours to discuss ways to end the conflict between the Sudanese army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF).

Fighting has been going on for nearly three months, triggering a major humanitarian crisis in the region.

The rival military factions are sending delegations to the summit, but previous regional and international attempts to make peace have failed.

On Wednesday, Egyptian President Abdul Fattah al-Sisi and Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed met in Cairo to discuss the crisis.
