In Afghanistan, the British and French took the lead in getting their people out while Biden's generals yelled at them to stop rescuing their people because it made them look bad. An American convoy came under fire in Sudan.
As the violent struggle for power over Sudan reaches the one-week mark, the Biden administration is sticking firmly to its warning for private citizens: don't expect to be rescued.
While the administration says it is working towards evacuating American embassy staff still stranded in the country, it makes no promises about other Americans who could get let behind.
Principal Deputy State Department spokesperson Vedant Patel said that officials had been in touch with several hundred of the estimated 16,000 U.S. citizens in Sudan concerning "Security measures and other precautions they can take on their own."
On Sunday, Italy said it had helped evacuate its own nationals, but also Swiss citizens and members of the embassy of the Holy See in Sudan.
Late Sunday evening the foreign affairs ministry said in a statement the "First phase" of the evacuation from Sudan had been carried out with the transfer of 105 Italians and 31 foreigners, including Portuguese, Australian, Greek, British, and Swedish nationals, on board an Italian Air Force C130 and a Spanish Air Force AM400 to Djibouti.
If Americans left behind in Sudan want to get out, they need to learn to play basketball, go lesbian and burn the American flag.
