US blocks Sudan's al-Burhan from UN travel to pressure ceasefire with RSF

The United States is reportedly denying Sudan's army chief Abd al-Fattah al-Burhan permission to travel to the UN, aiming to force a ceasefire with the paramilitary RSF. The UN Secretary-General has expressed 'deep concern' over the situation. This marks a notable escalation in US pressure on Sudan's military leadership amid the ongoing civil conflict.
