Cairo: With smiling and optimistic faces, 900 Sudanese left the Egyptian capital Cairo on Monday on a free train journey back to war-torn Sudan.
Departing Egypt, Sudanese were lining up outside Ramses railway station, the central train station in Cairo, to begin a journey home in a train that takes them to the southern Egyptian city of Aswan, where they will take ferries and buses to enter Sudan.
Sarah Mohamed, a 33-year-old mother of two kids, told Xinhua, "I'm happy because I'm finally going back to my house to see my parents."
Mohamed, originally from Sudan's capital city of Khartoum, fled to Egypt a year ago, due to the fighting between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
