Darfur - Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir has ended talks in Egypt on his second trip abroad since the International Criminal Court (ICC) warrant for his arrest.

Egypt is not a signatory of the ICC's charter, which obliges member states to arrest those indicted if they enter their territory.

Mr Bashir - who made a short trip to Eritrea on Monday - is to hold talks with Egyptian

President Hosni Mubarak.

Sudan's leader is accused of war crimes in his country's Darfur region.

Mr Bashir was received at Cairo's airport on Wednesday by the Egyptian president and senior government ministers.

The two leaders discussed the search for a resolution to the Darfur conflict.

The Egypt visit came amid a worsening humanitarian situation in Darfur.

The ICC accuses Mr Bashir of orchestrating atrocities against civilians in Darfur, where his Arab-led government has been battling black African rebels since 2003.

Up to 300,000 people have been killed and 2.7 million have been driven from their homes.

Sudan denies the charges and says the figures are exaggerated.
