Egypt evacuated on Tuesday 635 more citizens from Sudan, which has been ravaged by an armed conflict since April 15. The number of Egyptians evacuated from Sudan has reached 1,539 since the start of the evacuation, according to the statement. The ministry said the Egyptian diplomatic missions in Khartoum, Port Sudan and Wadi Halfa will continue to coordinate with the Egyptian nationals in Sudan to secure their evacuation. Egypt previously announced that the number of Egyptian citizens in Sudan exceeds 10,000, adding that it requires a tight, safe and orderly planned process to ensure their safe evacuation. The warring parties have agreed to a three-day ceasefire starting midnight on Monday, as many countries are racing to evacuate their diplomats and citizens from Sudan.
