British NHS consultant desperate to return to war-torn Sudan to save his mother

A British NHS consultant is desperate to return to war-torn Sudan in a bid to save his 76-year-old mother.

Hisham Elfaki, 39, from Sheffield, says that he needs to head into the warzone to help his Sudanese mum who suffers from severe arthritis and has gone days without food or water.

The NHS worker’s mother Zeinab, 76, fears she will die in the desert or be stuck at a border if she journeys out of Sudan alone without a guarantee of safety to Britain.
