Amidst the chaos, thousands of foreign nationals are trapped on Friday, April 21, despite calls from the UN and multiple embassies.</span></h5> <h5><span style="color: #0d0d0d;">Black smoke rising, soldiers and militiamen terrorizing the city; hundreds of people have already died in Sudan's conflict. The civilian population is hiding in their homes, with several people trapped in the midst of the battles. Abusufyan, a Sudanese-French national, reports that fighting has taken place right outside his home. In his neighborhood, there has been no water for several days. "(...) We're taking the risk just to fetch water because we have no other solution," he says.</span></h5> <h5><span style="color: #0d0d0d;">Around 300 French nationals are estimated to be trapped in the area. Khartoum has a population of five million people, yet the streets are practically deserted. "We were forced to gather in a small corridor, our nephews and grandchildren, they have an incredible terror," says a woman reached by phone. The conflict in Sudan is a battle for power; a fierce fight between two generals: the head of the regular army and the leader of a powerful militia. There are 1,500 European nationals in Sudan, including around 300 French people.</span></h5> <h5><span style="color: #0d0d0d;">The situation in Sudan is a grave concern for the international community, with numerous calls for an end to the violence and for the protection of civilians, including foreigners. The risks for foreign nationals in such conflict zones are high, with the potential for kidnapping and harm. The French embassy in Sudan has urged all citizens to remain vigilant and avoid any unnecessary travel. The embassy has also set up a crisis unit to assist French nationals stuck in the country.</span></h5> <h5><span style="color: #0d0d0d;">The ongoing conflict in Sudan is a stark reminder of the need for peaceful resolution of disputes, respect for human rights, and the protection of civilians caught in the crossfire. As the international community continues to work towards a solution, it is essential to prioritize the safety and well-being of all those affected by the conflict.</span></h5> </div> </div> </div>
