JAKARTA - Sudan's ambassador to Moscow, Mohamed Siraj, said Sudanese citizens who had fled the conflict for three years had returned to their homeland as the situation began to improve.
"When the war broke out, many Sudanese fled to neighboring countries, especially Egypt and others. That is the impact of the war. However, the situation is beginning to improve, the government has managed to take over the capital Khartoum, urging the RSF to withdraw far from the center of Sudan, so many of them have returned to their homes," Sirajke told RIA Novosti, quoted by ANTARA, Friday, March 27.
However, Siraj explained that Sudan still needs humanitarian assistance and thanked Russia for its support.
"Russia was among the first countries to support Sudan after the crisis began, by expressing support for Sudan's sovereignty and territorial integrity; not only declaring, but also showing it in practice. We greatly appreciate Russia's position in the Security Council (UN) in support of Sudan," said Siraj.
He believes the relationship between his country and Russia has a strong and close character, and both sides respect each other.
Sudan has been hit by fierce fighting between the RSF rebel group and the Sudanese armed forces since the spring of 2023.
The Sudanese army managed to recapture the capital, Khartoum, in early 2025. Meanwhile, the rebels intensified attacks in the south and west, especially in Darfur and Kordofan, and announced the formation of their own government in the areas under their control in April 2025.
