The British government announced the evacuation of about 300 citizens from Sudan due to the continuing armed clashes between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces.
The British government estimates about 4,000 Britons stranded in Sudan.
UK Home Secretary Suella Braverman said Wednesday that an “extensive operation” was underway to help Britons stranded in Sudan.
“We expect there to be approximately 200-300 people who have been relocated from Sudan in the last few flights, but we are now commencing an extensive operation,” Braverman added.
On Tuesday, the British government began evacuating its citizens in Sudan after the two warring parties agreed to a three-day truce.
