LANDMARK SKYSCRAPER IN KHARTOUM ENGULFED IN FLAMES

Buildings have caught fire in Sudan’s capital after heavy fighting between the army and rival forces.

Videos posted online showed the iconic Greater Nile Petroleum Oil Company Tower engulfed in flames.

Air strikes and ground battles have continued in Khartoum and other towns and cities since fighting broke out in April.

Located near the River Nile, the 18-storey oil firm skyscraper is one of the most recognisable landmarks in Khartoum.

It is not yet clear what caused the building’s cone-like structure, which has a glass facade, to catch fire. There have been no reports of injuries or deaths.
