The U.S. military evacuated American diplomats and their families from Sudan, the country’s paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) said early on Sunday as fighting between rival commanders that has killed hundreds of civilians continued.
The operation, involving six aircraft, was carried out in coordination with the RSF, it said.
Separately, a person familiar with the matter told Reuters the U.S. military had successfully evacuated U.S. embassy personnel. The Pentagon did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The “Build Back Better” just keeps on coming on an international level.
Shigero of Yomitan (@pancakeliberty) ~ Is this the third embassy evac for this administration?
sikeops (@sike0ps) ~ LMAO, everything under the sun falls apart under Biden, how many embassies have been evacuated under him? 1 in Afghanistan, 1 in Kyiv, and now Sudan? Am I missing anything?
Christian (@ChristianCamara) ~ Afghanistan, Ukraine, and now Sudan. How many more U.S. embassies will have to be evacuated in the 21 months left of this wretched clown show of an administration?
Kevin G (@animalkg) ~ Damn. Thought Biden was gonna heal the world and restore respect towards the U.S. LMAO!
