Fleet of Nile Ferries Now Transporting People from Sudan to Egypt

Local authorities in Aswan have, for the very first time, launched Nile ferries to transport Sudanese expatriates across the Qastal border and into Egypt, over a 24-hour-period.

Another ferry line is operating from Abu Simbel, with a 50-tonne and 100-passenger capacity, as well as over ten buses and transport vehicles. 

Various emergency services, including medical and psychological support, will be available at the border.
