In this context, Egypt reversed a visa exemption for children, women and elderly people. All citizens of neighbouring Sudan will nave have to obtain visas before crossing the border.

Egypt’s foreign ministry stressed in its statement that its consulates in Sudan have been provided with "the necessary electronic devices to carry out these regulations, ensuring the orderly entry of Sudanese citizens".
