South Koreans 'expected to be evacuated from Sudan'

South Korea says it will send a military aircraft to evacuate its nationals in Sudan, the Yonhap news agency reports.

The plane carrying dozens of soldiers and medical staff is expected to depart later in the day, the agency said, quoting security sources.

Twenty-five South Korean citizens are stuck in Sudan but are known to be safe, media say.

More than 330 people have so far been killed in Sudan's power struggle that began last weekend.
