A delegation of the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement-North (SPLM-N), a rebel group that has been fighting against the Khartoum government since 201, held a meeting with an American delegation in Tanzania’s capital Dar es Salaam on Tuesday, a rebel official said.

In a statement on Tuesday, SPLM spokesman on peace talks Mubarak Ardol, said the meeting discussed the humanitarian situation in the Blue Nile and South Kordofan regions as well as a cessation of hostilities.

He pointed out that his group maintained its position with regards to the humanitarian situation in line with its previous position while meeting the same delegation in the Ethiopian capital, Addis Ababa in April.

He noted that the delegation was led by SPLM-N chairman Malik Agar.
