Student fleeing Sudan for UK says dogs are eating dead bodies in the war-torn country

A British medical student has told of his harrowing escape from war-torn Sudan where he described lawless scenes – as others continued to flee yesterday before a 72-hour ceasefire ended.

Alaaldeen Hussin, who survived a perilous three-hour journey to the airfield before flying to Cyprus on Wednesday, also hit out at the Foreign Office – saying “they could have done more”.

It comes after Brits racing to exit Sudan have been left on their own by the UK government to make it to Wadi Seidna airbase, north of capital Khartoum ahead of the three-day ceasefire finishing at midnight on Thursday.
