Egypt’s intelligence chief holds talks with South Sudan’s Kiir, SRF

Egypt’s Intelligence chief discusses finalizing South Sudan peace pact with president, SRF: General Intelligence Service head Abbas Kamel met yesterday with the leaders of the Sudan Revolutionary Front (SRF) putting the final touches on the South Sudanese peace pact by pushing for “a comprehensive agreement.” Kamel also separately met with South Sudanese President Salva Kiir during a visit to Juba with an Egyptian delegation of senior officials. Kiir — a longtime Egypt ally supported by the SRF — signed in 2018 a peace agreement with Vice President Riek Machar to end a five-year civil war between two warring factions. Separately, Kamel and Health Minister Hala Zayed inaugurated a new Egyptian medical center in the South Sudanese capital.
