KHARTOUM: Sudanese troops participating in a Saudi-led military coalition fighting in Yemen will remain in the war-wracked country until the Arab alliance achieves its goals, the deputy of Sudan's ruling military council said Monday.

"We will stick to our committment with the Arab alliance and our troops will remain until the alliance achieves its goals," Mohammad Hamdan Daglo, widely known as Himeidti, told the official SUNA news agency, referring to Sudanese troops deployed in Yemen as part of the alliance fighting Huthi rebels.
