Sudan: How do countries evacuate people from a war zone?

In a fraught and rapidly changing environment, how does a government bring its diplomats to safety, especially if they are being targeted? Military personnel constantly rehearse and fine-tune these types of operations, says Mr Ingram, with Ministry of Defence and Foreign Office staff also regularly visiting British embassies around the world to discuss their evacuation plans. An operation like this one should not be conducted without consulting other allied countries that may also be looking to evacuate.
