Sudan’s Khartoum airport has been temporarily closed following an accident involving two military aircraft, and international flights were being diverted to Port Sudan airport, a civil aviation department spokesman said.
Abdel-Hafez Abdel-Rahim said the closure of the airport on Wednesday was precautionary in line with international regulations and the airport was expected to re-open soon.
