US citizens left behind in Sudan as world powers evacuate
TL;DR Summary
The US has come under scrutiny for evacuating roughly 70 embassy staff in a helicopter mission by elite SEAL commandos over the weekend, while warning thousands of private American citizens in Sudan there would be no similar evacuation for them. While embassy staff was airlifted out, there were no plans to provide similar evacuations for potentially thousands of Americans still in Sudan. Other countries, including France, Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom, Spain, Holland, Turkey, Japan, South Korea, Jordan, South Africa, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia, have evacuated their citizens and those of other countries.
