On Saturday, the Indian Embassy had asked all Indians living in Sudan to take utmost precautions, stay indoors and not venture outside. It also urged Indians planning to travel to Sudan to postpone their travel.

The fighting erupted in the Sudanese capital, Khartoum, and elsewhere in the country as a direct result of a vicious power struggle within the country's military leadership.
