OTTAWA — Canada is working with"like-minded countries" to help citizens who remain in Sudan flee the country
Hundreds have been killed and thousands injured in just 10 days after power-sharing negotiations between the country's armed forces and its paramilitary troops rapidly deteriorated. Almost 1,600 Canadians were formally registered in Sudan as of Saturday, but experts believe the number of Canadians in the country is likely much higher.
While Ottawa has not explained how its diplomats left Sudan, the New York Times reported Sunday that U.S. special forces evacuated six Canadian diplomats, along with 70 American diplomats and some from other countries.Global Affairs Canada has yet to answer questions sent Sunday morning about those reports.
