The Sudanese military says its leader, General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, survived an attempted assassination when a drone attack hit an army graduation ceremony, killing five people. The army accused the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces of being behind the attack, but the RSF has denied responsibility. The warring parties had just recently agreed to participate in U.S.-mediated talks in Geneva this month to end the bloody civil war, which has devastated Sudan since April of last year. General Burhan appeared to rebuff any possible peace deal as he spoke yesterday following the attack.
