West Darfur state governor has been killed after publicly blaming the deaths of civilians on Sudan’s paramilitary RSF.

The Sudanese Red Crescent says persisting clashes across Sudan has led volunteers to bury 180 bodies without identification.

"The UN was taken by surprise" by the conflict, Secretary-General Guterres said.

Sudan's regular army accuses rivaling RSF paramilitary of attacking the Turkish evacuation plane.

The warring groups in Sudan continued to engage in fierce clashes on Friday with heavy gunfire and explosions heard in the capital Khartoum and other cities despite the proclamation of a 72-hour ceasefire.

Sudan's ruling council has declared the paramilitary RSF faction as a rebellious group, ordering its dissolution.

Sudan's paramilitary commander has vowed to continue fighting until "all army bases are captured".
