## Description

Atbara (ATB/HSAT) is a small airfield in Sudan's River Nile state, serving a town known primarily as a railway junction and centre of the cement and rail industries. There is no genuine freight infrastructure here — no cargo terminal, handling agent or air-freight customs post — and goods reach the region by road and rail instead. Civil aviation in Sudan has been heavily restricted since the conflict that began in 2023; Port Sudan (PZU), some 600 kilometres to the north-east, is the gateway that has continued to function for cargo and relief supplies.
