TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — Tampa-based nonprofit Project Dynamo coordinated the evacuation of nearly 90 Americans and allies from Sudan this week, landing the first charter flight for people fleeing civil war.
According to a news release from Project Dynamo, organizers of the Rhino River operation were the first to land a private plane for evacuees, following the U.S. military’s evacuation of the embassy in the capital city of Khartoum.
