KHARTOUM, Dec. 23 (Xinhua) -- Sudan's Khartoum International Airport Company on Sunday said that air traffic at the airport was normal, official SUNA news agency reported.

"Domestic and foreign airlines steer flights to and from Khartoum normally without interruption," Mohamed Al-Mahdi Abdoun, the airport's spokesman, was quoted as saying.

Some local media reported earlier that some foreign airlines companies cooperating with Khartoum international airport have stopped flights because of the instability of the U.S. dollar exchange rate against the Sudanese pound.

The Sudanese pound has registered unprecedented decline against foreign currencies in the past few weeks, dropping from one dollar exchanging 65 Sudanese pounds two days ago to 75 Sudanese pounds now in the parallel market.
