The Rapid Support Forces says it has agreed to extend the ceasefire in Sudan by three days.
Earlier, the Sudanese military accepted the extension of the truce. The ceasefire and its extension had been brokered by the United States and Saudi Arabia.
The existing truce, which was to expire at midnight Thursday, has not stopped the fighting between the two sides but created enough of a lull for tens of thousands of Sudanese to flee to safer areas and for foreign nations to evacuate hundreds of their citizens by land and sea.
