Gunfire and explosions have been heard in the Sudanese capital, Khartoum, after days of tension between a notorious paramilitary force and the country’s army.
The dispute centres around a proposed transition to civilian rule.
Reuters is reporting that gunfire has be heard close to the headquarters of the army in the centre of the city.
The paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) say one of their camps in the south of Khartoum has been attacked.
The army has said that RSF fighters are trying to seize the military headquarters.
Generals have been running the country since a coup in October 2021.
A proposed move to a civilian-led government has foundered on the timetable to integrate the RSF into the national army.
The RSF wanted to delay it for 10 years, but the army said it should happen in two years.
No one was injured and it landed safely at Wadi Seidna, where it was being checked.
