The U.S. said on Monday that the warring factions in Sudan had agreed to a 72-hour ceasefire, while Western, Arab and Asian nations raced to extract their citizens from the country.

U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said the truce deal followed two days of intense negotiations and would begin on Tuesday. The two sides have not abided by several previous temporary truce deals.
