Sudanese conflict disrupts evacuation efforts and prompts citizen evacuations.

Germany had to abort a mission to evacuate around 150 citizens from Sudan due to fighting in the capital Khartoum. The Luftwaffe air force had dispatched three A400M transport planes for the mission early on Wednesday, but the mission was halted amid reports of renewed clashes and airstrikes in Khartoum. Fighting erupted in Sudan on Saturday, killing at least 185 people and derailing an internationally backed plan for a transition to civilian democracy in the country.
