Sudan: German army cancels mission to evacuate civilians due to renewed conflict

A German military mission to evacuate 150 civilians from Sudan was halted today due to clashes in Khartoum, Spiegel magazine reported, citing unnamed sources.

According to the relevant publication Spiegel, the German Air Force provided three A400M transport aircraft for the mission early this morning, which landed in Greece for refueling.

According to Spiegel, the German military canceled the mission due to reports of renewed hostilities and airstrikes in Khartoum.

A spokesman for the German Ministry of Defense declined to comment on the report, while the German Foreign Ministry also did not respond to an emailed request for comment.
