MOGADISHU (Somaliguardian) – Somalia’s government is considering efforts to evacuate thousands of its nationals stranded by the war raging in Sudan, VOA reported on Monday.
Somali ambassador to Sudan told VOA that they were mulling efforts to return the stranded Somali nationals back home as clashes between the Sudanese army and Rapid Support Forces continue to escalate.
“We are discussing, in case there is an evacuation, how they could be moved out of this country,” Somali ambassador to Sudan Mohamed Sheikh Isak said in an interview with VOA.
“There are no planes. There is a plan we are working on which is, if we cannot evacuate them through the airports, to rent buses and move them out of the city, and take them to the neighboring countries of South Sudan and Ethiopia.”
