FM: Delays at Egyptian crossing due to technical issues

Political advisor to the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates, Ahmed Al-Deek , said, "There was a delay in the departure of the bus convoy carrying students and a number of families towards the border crossing between Sudan and Egypt, due to force majeure circumstances and reasons beyond our control."


Al-Deek confirmed in a statement that the crisis cell formed at the Embassy of the State of Palestine in Khartoum is conducting an intensive series of contacts with bus companies, and work is underway to secure the buses required to transport 123 Palestinian students to the border crossing and a number of other Palestinian families.


Al-Deek added, "The embassy has secured the students in a safe place, awaiting the arrival of the buses, which are expected to depart in the next few hours."


Al-Deek called on all parties to exercise accuracy and caution in circulating some rumors and false information that detract from the effort of the embassy and its staff who work around the clock, in very dangerous conditions and with limited capabilities, to secure the evacuation of our people and students from Khartoum.


He said, "Despite these difficult circumstances, the Embassy of the State of Palestine in Khartoum is still open around the clock, working and receiving communications, and providing assistance to all those who request it from among the members of our community and other communities as well, including communication with everyone who expresses his desire to leave Khartoum."


Al-Deek confirmed that the ministry will publish all the details related to the evacuation and the problems it encountered and was able to overcome after the evacuation process is completed successfully, God willing.
