Sudanese voluntary repatriation from Egypt and Libya

Overview

Efforts to facilitate the voluntary return of Sudanese nationals from Egypt and Libya to Sudan have expanded through various humanitarian and transport initiatives. Early efforts involving the Hope Committee for Voluntary Return and the Al-Aziziyah Cross-Border Land Transport Company successfully facilitated the return of approximately 50,000 people. To assist those affected by conflict, transport companies reduced ticket prices and provided free bus services for families unable to afford travel.

Subsequent operations by the Al-Amal Committee for Voluntary Return have continued to move groups of Sudanese nationals from Cairo via bus. These initiatives have also prioritized the academic sector, with plans to transport approximately 15,000 university students and 500 professors to support the upcoming academic year. Officials noted that these returnees are expected to contribute to reconstruction and stability efforts within Sudan.
