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.
