39 foreign students evacuated from Sudan amid bloody civil war

39 foreign students, most of whom were Kenyan or Somali, were evacuated via a Kenya Airforce plane from war-torn Sudan, where they studied at an international university.

The students traveled by road to South Sudan where they boarded the military aircraft.

The group was received by Defense Minister Aden Duale who said they were all students at an international university in Sudan and that more Kenyans were scheduled to be airlifted home.
