Egypt has denied allegations from Sudanese paramilitary chief Mohamed Hamdan Daglo, who has been at war with the army since April last year, that its military has been involved in the conflict.

The war between Daglo’s Rapid Support Forces and the regular military, led by army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, has killed tens of thousands and caused the world’s largest displacement crisis. In a video posted online Wednesday, Daglo accused Egypt’s air force of carrying out strikes targeting his forces near Jebel Moya, a key area south of Khartoum.
