Our priority has always been the safe evacuation of British Nationals, including dual nationals, and their eligible dependents. The UK has conducted the largest evacuation of any Western country from Sudan. As of 2 May the UK has facilitated the departure of over 2300 people, of which over half were British nationals or dual nationals.
