1,100 Sudanese return home from Egypt under voluntary repatriation program

A total of 1,100 Sudanese nationals returned home from Egypt under a voluntary repatriation program, the state-run Sudan News Agency (SUNA) reported. The returnees departed Cairo aboard 22 buses organized by the Al-Amal Committee for Voluntary Return, the group said in a statement Thursday. The Al-Amal Committee is a community-led humanitarian initiative that coordinates with Sudanese state institutions to facilitate the safe and dignified voluntary return of citizens. Committee Executive Secretary Montaser Osman said voluntary return journeys would continue for those wishing to return and contribute to “rebuilding and reconstruction.” He said the convoys would continue until the last Sudanese national wishing to return had done so.
