Klebsiella pneumoniae is an opportunistic pathogen that accounts for a significant proportion of hospital-acquired infections and is a leading cause of nosocomial outbreaks. Here, we describe the genomic sequence of a highly resistant K. pneumoniae sequence type 14 (ST14) strain isolated from Sudan.
