  • John Swinney's programme for government dominates the front pages of the daily newspapers in Scotland.

The article from the BBC discusses the ongoing conflict in Sudan, focusing on the recent escalation of violence in the capital, Khartoum, and the western region of Darfur. It reports that at least 270 people have been killed and over 2,600 injured since the fighting began between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) paramilitary group. The conflict, rooted in a power struggle between army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and RSF leader Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, has led to widespread chaos, with residents trapped in their homes amidst heavy gunfire and airstrikes. The article also highlights international concerns, with the UN and various countries calling for an immediate ceasefire and expressing fears of a broader civil war. Efforts to mediate the situation are ongoing, but the situation remains volatile, with significant humanitarian implications as civilians struggle to access basic necessities.
