Seeing totality
The nearest edge of the path of totality is about 781 km north-east of Khartoum North.
The nearest place on this site with at least a minute of totality is Hala'ib, about 849 km north-east, where totality lasts 5 m 19 s.
Totality is shortest at the edges of the path and longest along the centre line, so the further inside you go, the longer it lasts.
Eye safety guide: Never look at the Sun without certified eclipse glasses, except during totality.
