US citizens stranded in Sudan as international bodies urge cease-fire extension.

US citizens in Sudan are struggling to leave the country as violence between the Sudanese army and a paramilitary group continues. The Biden administration initially told Americans to make their own arrangements, but now says it will help facilitate their departure. However, the US Embassy in Khartoum is not providing clear instructions on how to flee, leaving many stranded foreigners and Sudanese citizens to organize online. As many as 16,000 US citizens are believed to be in Sudan, most of them dual nationals. Some Americans are turning to foreign countries for help, but reaching the coastal Sudanese city remains a hurdle for many.
