The territory of the metropolis is fenced with a high wall, and believers on its territory do not have the opportunity to go outside, she told the Zvezda TV channel.

According to her, there is no damage on the territory itself, food supplies should be enough for a couple of days.

The Russian woman admitted that the crowd hears explosions and shooting, and this worries them very much.

"Since it was Easter yesterday, we came to church on Saturday for worship. It was 9:30 a.m., and it was at this time that the events began. We were in the church, the shooting started. Of course, the gates were all blocked at once, and we've been here ever since," she said.

Earlier it was reported that the death toll as a result of armed clashes in Sudan increased to 97.

The Russian Embassy in Khartoum said it would evacuate Russian citizens to their places of residence or to the diplomatic mission building as soon as possible.
