Sudan’s army announces its fighters have entered the presidential palace in the centre of Khartoum
In recent weeks the army has stepped up its campaign against the rival Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in the city, which it lost at the start of the war in 2023
Reclaiming Khartoum would be a huge victory for the army and a pivotal moment in the conflict
But the RSF says it is fighting back and claims to have launched an attack on the palace
The RSF also still controls large parts of the country – including much of the west
The two-year civil war has caused the world’s largest humanitarian crisis, according to the UN
