What happened
Sudanese citizens are voluntarily returning to their home country from Egypt and other neighboring regions. Transit corridors, including the path between Aswan and Halfa, are experiencing congestion as arrivals continue to cross borders.
Reports highlight the challenge of integrating returnees into a city that currently lacks the readiness to receive them. Future developments depend on the management of transit populations currently stuck between borders.
It remains to be seen how local authorities will address the infrastructure gaps impacting returnees reaching the capital.
