What the petition asks
Evacuate Sudanese nationals whose travel documents are held in UK Government offices that have been closed due to the current conflict. Some Sudanese nationals have been approved for visas or waiting for an application to be considered, but now can't travel because they do not have their passports.
Some of these individuals have been approved for entry into the UK and have the right to escape the ongoing conflict and war in Sudan. However, their inability to retrieve their passports from UK Government offices has left them stranded and unable to leave the country.
Some of these individuals are spouses/partners to UK residents. We implore the relevant authorities to take urgent steps to evacuate these individuals from Sudan.
