Dozens of U.S. embassy staff and families were evacuated from Sudan by members of the U.S. military Saturday, President Joe Biden said in a statement.
The evacuation comes days after the the U.S. State Department issued a Level 4 warning about the war-torn nation, calling the situation “violent, volatile, and extremely unpredictable, particularly in the capital city Khartoum.” Biden said the U.S. is “temporarily suspending operations” at the Embassy but remains committed “to the Sudanese people and the future they want.”
“Today, on my orders, the United States military conducted an operation to extract U.S. Government personnel from Khartoum,” said Biden in a press release issued Saturday. “I am grateful for the unmatched skill of our service members who successfully brought them to safety.”
Rick Hogg, a retired Special Operations Forces member, is familiar with Embassy evacuation operations using military forces, including special operations capabilities. Hogg told the Daily Caller News Foundation, “The Special Operations Forces are capable of conducting noncombat evacuation operations [NEO] and have conducted numerous NEO operations. The special operations members likely worked alongside their Marine counterparts to facilitate this evacuation.”
On Friday, Karine Jean-Pierre, the White House press secretary, said, “It is not our standard procedure to evacuate American citizens living abroad.” Sixteen thousand U.S. citizens remain in Sudan, according to ABC News.
The Defense Department also deployed military forces to nearby Djibouti in preparation for a potential evacuation earlier in the week, according to a press release.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
