Jennifer McLellan spoke of her terror as she hunkered down with her husband and four children near capital Khartoum
A Scots mum trapped in Sudan with her kids yesterday begged the UK Government to rescue them as fierce fighting rages on.
Jennifer said: “We want our Government to give us some hope that they are going to do something for us. The UK government said it had managed to airlift diplomats and their families out of the country in a “complex and rapid” operation but Foreign Minister James Cleverly said options to evacuate an estimated 4,000 nationals in Sudan were “severely limited”.
Bombing and shooting has cut electricity and safe access to food and water for much of the population.
