The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) encouraged the voluntary repatriation of Filipinos amid violence in Sudan.
“The public is informed that Alert Level 3 (Voluntary Repatriation Evacuation) has been raised for the whole of the Sudan region due to the ongoing political situation in the country,” the DFA said in a statement on Wednesday night.
“In this regard, the public is assured that the Philippine Embassy in Cairo is continuously monitoring the situation while providing repatriation assistance to Filipinos in Sudan.”
For emergencies, Filipinos may contact the Philippine embassy through the following:
- WhatsApp/Mobile: (+20) 122 743 6472
- Facebook/Messenger: PHinEgypt
- Email: [email protected]
Hundreds of Filipinos have already been evacuated from Sudan amid fierce fighting between the army and paramilitary forces due to a power struggle.
The DFA will only implement mandatory repatriation once Alert Level 4 is raised.
