The Fall of Khartoum | VPRO Documentary
69Despite clear signals, the Dutch embassy in the Sudanese capital of Khartoum was not prepared for the war that broke out there in mid-April 2023. This left dozens of Sudanese in life-threatening situations.
Journalist Bram Vermeulen travels to Cairo, London and Bristol to speak with family members of people who were forced to stay behind in the violence of war. He also interviews Ambassador Irma van Dueren about the embassy's chaotic evacuation. 'My colleagues just did a good job,' Van Dueren says.
