Sudan has suspended all inbound and outbound flights until October 30, the country’s civil aviation authority said Tuesday, following unrest due to a military coup.<\/p>\n

“All incoming and outgoing flights from Khartoum Airport have been suspended until October 30 due to the situation in the country,” said Civil Aviation Authority Director General Ibrahim Adlan.<\/p>\n

Following a military coup on Monday,\u00a0armed forces detained the civilian leaders who have been heading the transition to full civilian rule following the April 2019 overthrow of autocrat Omar al-Bashir.<\/p>\n

Detained leaders include Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok, with UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres demanding his release on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The coup raised fears for the fate of Hamdok, but Sudan’s top general Abdel Fattah al-Burhan said the premier was “at my home… in good health” and would be able to return to his own home “when the crisis is over”.<\/p>\n

“Yes, we arrested ministers and politicians, but not all” of, Burhan said at a news conference.
\nHis comments suggested Hamdok was not among those arrested and detained but, shortly after, the Information Ministry, which remains loyal to the prime minister, relayed a statement from his office demanding his immediate release.<\/p>\n
