Please be informed that the airports in Sudan remain closed since 15 April 2023, and there is no safe option for air evacuation at this time.
There are announcements on ceasefires being agreed to, but there are still gunshots and bombings in certain areas. Venture out if and only necessary (like to replenish supplies, e.g., food and water). Carefully assess the situation in your area before leaving your homes.
Otherwise, we kindly ask you to remain in your home, and away from windows and rooftops. Stay at the lower levels of your shelter.
