International Efforts to Evacuate Citizens from Sudan Amidst Ceasefire Fears

The UK's Foreign Secretary James Cleverly has denied claims that the country's evacuation of its diplomats from Sudan hampered Germany's own bid to get its nationals out of the conflict-hit country. The BBC had quoted multiple German "political sources" who blamed the UK's attempts to evacuate embassy staff over the weekend for delays Germany experienced as it tried to evacuate its own citizens. The UK's wider evacuation from Sudan began Tuesday, with seven flights lifting British nationals from Sudan since then.
