The European Union says it is planning for a possible evacuation of its citizens from Sudan’s capital, Khartoum.
A senior official said an operation was being co-ordinated, with different possibilities being worked on for getting people out.
An estimated 1,500 EU nationals are trapped in the Sudanese capital.
Seven EU member states have missions in Sudan.
German Foreign Minister Anna Baerbock said the first priority was a ceasefire so people could be pulled out.
The United States says it is not yet made a decision on whether to evacuate diplomatic personnel. The White House said other US citizens should make their own arrangements to stay safe.
