Bangladeshi evacuees trapped in Sudan running out of food, water

DHAKA: Hundreds of Bangladeshis stuck in a cramped makeshift camp while awaiting evacuation from Sudan are short of food and water, and are still unsure when they will be brought to safety. The Bangladeshis are among thousands of foreigners who have tried to flee Sudan since deadly fighting broke out on April 15 between the Sudanese army and the paramilitary group Rapid Support Forces. Mass evacuations began on 24 April, when the warring parties declared a ceasefire.
