France announced Monday the closure of its embassy in Sudan, as the ongoing battles between the army and the Rapid Support Forces prompted many countries to intensify their efforts to evacuate their nationals.
And a spokeswoman for the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced in a statement that "the French embassy in Sudan is closed until further notice. It no longer constitutes a gathering point for people wishing to leave Khartoum ," explaining that the embassy continues "its activities from Paris under the responsibility of the ambassador."

With the continued whistling of bullets and the sound of explosions in Khartoum and other cities, Western and regional capitals were able to open safe paths for the expulsion of foreign nationals with the guarantee of the two conflicting parties, that is, the army commander Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and the commander of the Rapid Support Forces Muhammad Hamdan Dagalo.

France, like other countries, has carried out the evacuation of hundreds of French nationals and other nationalities since Sunday, and has organized several air bridges between Khartoum and Djibouti.

The French Foreign Ministry said that Paris is "mobilizing its energies to facilitate the ceasefire and the resumption of the political transition process in Sudan," noting that it "fully supports the coordination mechanism under the supervision of the African Union , the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD), the Arab League , the European Union and the United Nations ."

The statement called on "all parties to stop the fighting, allow humanitarian aid to arrive, spare the civilian population, and return to the path of political dialogue."
