As logged at issue
Likely that Sudan's Khartoum State foreign-national entry restriction, imposed alongside this week's curfew lift, remains in force unrelaxed to pre-emergency visa norms six months out (by February 27, 2027) -- army-aligned authorities cited security screening as the rationale in an active civil war, and governments that pair a normalization gesture with a tightened foreigner-entry rule rarely reverse it quickly; a formal announcement reopening Khartoum State to foreign nationals without special permits would flip this.
