We made to Jeddah safely after a 24 hr journey by sea. The Saudis literally rolled out the red carpet upon arrival, handing us sweets, flowers and Saudi flags upon arrival and putting everyone up in hotels. I feel conflicted about it but have to hand it to them…#sudan_update
They are the only country to actually undertake a civilian (free) evacuation for everyone regardless of nationality Shame on all the other countries that could have and decided not to, especially the Egyptians for giving ppl a hard time at the border…
There were so many beautiful moments of solidarity/generosity btw ppl from around the world on this ship. Special shout out and solidarity with the hundreds of Yemenis esp. for being asked to wave the Saudi flag as part of the PR aspect of this evacuation.

She said phone and internet signal returned immediately upon leaving Khartoum.

2. On her bus journey out of Khartoum, she said that she witnessed the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) defeating the army in Khartoum, Bahri and Omdorman.
🧵The evacuation of embassies across Khartoum signals the international community's failure in #Sudan. While we pray for their safe departure, we also pray that when they return, they will dialogue humbly with Sudan's civil society leaders, not just warlords. #KeepEyesOnSudan
The U.S. & international community, including European nations, showed a failure of imagination by negotiating exclusively with SAF warlord Gen. Burhan🤏 and RSF warlord Hemedti🐍 instead of with Sudanese Resistance Committees, trade unions, intellectuals, young people & women.
We mourn the deaths of four Sudanese #humanitarian workers. Say their names:
* Siddig Abdalla Tahir, Osman Abdalla Ali & Yusuf Ibrahim of @WFP_Sudan, killed by RSF in Kabkabiya.
* Ahmed Othman Fadl, Director of @IOMSudan's office in Al-Fula, West Kordofan.👇
