Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether his Department is taking steps to help support British Citizens in Sudan who have been unable to reach airports in time for the evacuation flights.

The FCDO continues to run a 24/7 crisis response, and any British nationals in need of consular assistance should contact the FCDO. The final UK evacuation flight from Wadi Saeedna airfield departed on 30 April, following the successful evacuation of 2197 people. On 1 May we ran two evacuation flights to help British nationals to leave Port Sudan, and we have facilitated other people onto ships leaving for safe countries in the region. We continue to provide consular support to British nationals in Port Sudan and in neighbouring countries in the region.
