New Delhi:
India has begun 'Operation Kaveri' to bring back its citizens stranded in violence-hit Sudan. About 500 Indians have reached Port Sudan where INS Sumedha has been positioned since yesterday. "Our ships and aircraft are set to bring them back home", informed Foreign Minister S Jaishankar today.
Earlier in the day, France evacuated five Indians along with citizens of 27 other countries as part of its evacuation mission from Sudan.
Sudan has been witnessing deadly fighting between the country's army and a paramilitary group for the last five days that has reportedly left around 100 people dead.
Here are the highlights on Operation Kaveri:
