Sudan's Burhan to meet Sisi in Cairo

Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi met with Sudan's army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan in Cairo on Monday. A Sudanese army statement said Sisi had invited Burhan to the 12th World Urban Forum organized by the UN Human Settlements Programme (UN-Habitat).

Burhan's most recent visit to Egypt was in February when he met Sisi and discussed "his government's vision to end the war and establish peace and stability". Burhan has historically been close to Sisi.
