 Another group of 870 Sudanese nationals leave Egypt for home


Sudan’s Al Amal Committee for Voluntary Return said on Thursday that 870 Sudanese nationals had left Egypt for Sudan aboard 30 buses departing from Cairo, Alexandria and Aswan, the state-run Sudan News Agency (SUNA) reported.


The Al Amal Committee is a community-led humanitarian initiative that coordinates with Sudanese state institutions to facilitate the safe and voluntary return of citizens.


Returnees include university professors and students enrolled in Sudanese universities, the committee said.


Hassan Khalid, rapporteur for the return committee, said the committee had helped organise the repatriation of roughly 50,000 Sudanese nationals from Egypt to Sudan.


Last week, the committee announced the departure of 22 buses carrying 1,100 Sudanese from Egypt.


Early this month, 350 Sudanese nationals returned from Alexandria aboard seven buses under the same programme.


In July, more than 6,000 Sudanese returned from Egypt on six separate convoys, according to the committee’s figures.


Since the war between the Sudanese army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces broke out in 2023, more than 1.2 million Sudanese have fled to Egypt, according to official estimates.
