The Sudanese Armed Forces reported on its official Facebook page early Wednesday morning that it had responded to the calls and rescued the students.
The armed forces posted a video clip on their page of evacuating the students, saying:"On Tuesday, April 18, the Armed Forces carried out an evacuation of students who had been stuck at the University of Khartoum four days ago, during a hit-and-run, in which the Rapid Support Militia targeted these students as human shields.".
She explained: "The force took precaution and caution to preserve their safety until they were completely evacuated with a safe exit, using a cover with an opening at the bottom of the wall to complete the operation without any losses.".
