Over 400 individuals murdered and 3,550 injured in Sudan's turmoil, Kenyan students have opened a route from Khartoum to Addis Abeba, Ethiopia.
The 1410-kilometre flight, on the other hand, was driven by nations' inability to transport their residents due to substantial damage to Khartoum International Airport by warring parties.
Despite occasional internet failures, Citizen TV could contact some students over WhatsApp.
Mwashame, one of the Kenyan students, stated on Sunday that they could safely leave their university and reach the bus terminal in Minal Al-bari.

Dr Korir Sing'oei stated that The first group of students had already boarded a bus bound for Gadaref, and the second group was preparing to board the same bus. Adding that While all of this is happening, they are also in contact with the Kenyan embassy in Sudan and that everything is good at the moment
According to Kenya's Foreign Affairs Principal Secretary, the government's primary priority is to keep Kenyans safe.
He went on to say that landing there is challenging. So the aim is to transport Kenyans to Port Sudan, where they will be airlifted to Jeddah and, hopefully, Nairobi.
Over 100 Kenyan students who have left Khartoum for the Ethiopian border must travel through Gondar City in Northern Ethiopia, 534 kilometres from Mekele, the Tigrayan regional capital.
Mekele has been at odds with the Federal Government of Ethiopia and regional Tigrayan troops for the past two years.
He explained that the Juba and Addis Ababa embassies have teams supporting and facilitating their safe passage.
According to the administration, the United Nations and other multi-national organizations have requested that their employees be evacuated to Nairobi before being transported to their home nations.
PS Korir stated that Nairobi is leading mediation efforts under the AU and IGAD, both of which have called for a cease of hostilities, de-escalation, and a return to normalcy.
Fighting between the Sudanese Army, led by General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the Rapid Support Forces, led by Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, has resulted in water and power disruptions, as well as internet outages.
As battle develops in Khartoum and other major Sudanese cities, the United States, Saudi Arabia, the United Kingdom, and Belgium have evacuated their citizens.
