Family stuck at Egypt border as drivers demand $40,000 to cross

A family fleeing Sudan say they are among thousands stuck at the border with Egypt because drivers are demanding £31,810 ($40,000) to hire a bus to travel across.

Only people travelling on buses with special permits can cross the border. Crossing on foot is banned.

The family of seven - including three children under 10 - escaped the fighting in Khartoum two days ago.
