Bangladeshis to be evacuated from Sudan: Shahriar

State Minister for Foreign Affairs Md Shahriar Alam has said the government has decided to evacuate Bangladeshi nationals from Sudan through other countries.

“The Bangladesh Embassy in Khartoum has already started spreading this message among the Bangladeshis living there,” Alam posted in his Facebook page on Tuesday.

The state minister urged the Bangladeshi nationals in Sudan to follow the instructions provided by the embassy and complete registration.

The situation in Sudan will dictate how the evacuations will be carried out, said the state minister.

He also urged the media not to contact the embassy regarding the evacuation route as it will be confidential given the situation in Sudan.

Earlier, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs had issued a notification advising Bangladeshi nationals not to travel to Sudan due to uncertainties caused by the current situation there.
