Two-year curfew lifted in Sudan's capital

Sudan's military-led government has lifted a two-year curfew and state of emergency in Khartoum, the capital, following the end of hostilities with the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). This decision comes 18 months after the army regained control of the city during a four-year civil war. While the curfew removal aims to restore normalcy, challenges persist, including ongoing clashes in southern and western regions, damage to infrastructure, and frequent power outages attributed to RSF actions and insufficient government funding. Over two million displaced residents have returned to Khartoum, but rebuilding efforts face obstacles such as looted buildings and continued insecurity. Security measures remain in place, with reports of military operations targeting suspected RSF operatives and undocumented individuals. Neighboring Chad has accused Sudan of conducting an air strike within its territory, though Sudan denies the claim and asserts its commitment to regional stability.
