Sudan: Thousands of foreign nationals still trying to flee country – BBC News

A 72-hour ceasefire between the Sudanese army and a rival paramilitary group appears to be holding in some parts of the country, the UN has said.

Thousands of foreign nationals are still trying to get out of the country – with numerous governments organising evacuations of their citizens.

As thousands flee, residents in the capital Khartoum have spoken of their fears the world is abandoning them, with supplies of food, water and medicine running low.

Nearly all the shops in the city have closed. And residents say prices of even the most basic goods have doubled.
