Sudan to abandon Baghdad embassy
The Sudanese government has announced it is shutting its embassy in Baghdad, in an apparent bid to win the release of five kidnapped embassy staff.
It follows a web statement attributed to al-Qaeda in Iraq, in which the group said it had the hostages and demanded Sudan cut diplomatic ties with Baghdad.
A Sudanese foreign ministry spokesman said the embassy would close on Friday.
