PETALING JAYA: Loud gunshots can be heard outside the home of a Malaysian student in Sudan where military unrest has killed over 50 people so far.
The 25-year old Islamic studies student, who only wants to be known as Anas, has been staying put at his home in the Al-Mamoura neighbourhood in the Sudanese capital of Khartoum since the unrest began on Saturday.Anas, who is among the few Malaysian students studying in Sudan, won’t be going out for now, not even to get food to break fast.
In a statement earlier, Malaysia has strongly condemned the ongoing hostilities between Sudan’s army and the Rapid Support Forces . “Meaningful dialogue and negotiations are the only way forward towards restoring peace and stability in Sudan,” it said. So far, at least 56 people have been killed and 595 injured in clashes across Sudan, according to a medical group known as Central Committee of Sudan Doctors.
