Citizen Cem Harbilioglu said that he came to Ethiopia by land in coordination with the Turkish embassy in Khartoum, and that the evacuation process was somewhat difficult.
He added that he had been living in Sudan for 20 years and had to leave because of the war that suddenly broke out between the army and the Rapid Support Forces.
He expressed his happiness at his arrival in Istanbul and their reception by relatives and citizens.
Since April 15, a number of states in Sudan have witnessed large-scale clashes between the army, led by Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the Rapid Support Forces, led by Muhammad Hamdan Dagalo “Hemedti”, which claimed the lives of hundreds of people, dead and wounded, most of them civilians.
And on Saturday, the evacuation of nationals of many countries began, amid clashes between the Sudanese army and the “Rapid Support Forces” in the center of the capital, Khartoum, and other cities.
