[Regnum] Some employees of the Russian embassy in Sudan, as well as Russian citizens who applied with a corresponding request, were evacuated from Sudan, the Russian Foreign Ministry reported on August 1.

“Due to high security risks in the context of ongoing clashes in Sudan, some employees of the Russian Embassy transferred from Khartoum, as well as Russian citizens and family members who applied for assistance in returning to their homeland, were taken out of Port Sudan,” the ministry noted.

On August 1, the evacuees were delivered by a special flight of the Military Transport Aviation of the Russian Ministry of Defense to the Chkalovsky airfield near Moscow. The work of the Russian Embassy in Port Sudan continues as usual, the Foreign Ministry added.

As IA Regnum reported earlier, as a result of the armed conflict in Sudan, which began in the spring of 2023, more than 600 people were killed in the first days , and at least 5,000 people were injured. At the end of May 2023, the warring parties, the army and the rapid reaction forces, agreed to a humanitarian truce, but subsequently clashes resumed.
