Sudan will reopen Khartoum airport to all inbound and outbound flights on Wednesday.

The head of civil aviation authority, Gen Ibrahim Adlan, told news agencies that the airport will resume operations starting Wednesday 4pm local time (1400 GMT).

The country suspended flights on Tuesday, a day after the military seized power and declared a state of emergency.

Most cabinet ministers in the transitional government were also reported to have been detained, although Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok has been released.
