Sudan's military and civilian leaders signed Monday an initial deal aimed at ending a deep crisis that has gripped the northeast African country since a coup a year ago.

The deal, part of a two-phase political process, was signed by army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and by multiple civilian groups — notably the Forces for Freedom and Change, ousted in last year's coup.
