Strikes hit Sudan cities as army chief defies US visa ban
Original: Strikes hit Sudan cities as army chief defiant after US visa snub
Airstrikes struck several Sudanese cities as the country's army chief responded defiantly to a United States decision to deny him a visa, a move linked to Washington's criticism of the military's conduct in the civil war. The visa snub has drawn international attention to Sudan's worsening conflict and strained relations between Khartoum's military leadership and the US.
Why now: The combination of escalating strikes and the US visa denial has put Sudan's conflict back in the spotlight.
