NEW YORK: Saudi Arabia’s aid agency KSrelief co-hosted a high-level ministerial panel at the UN headquarters this week on the worsening humanitarian crises in the Middle East and Sudan.
KSrelief hosted the event, titled “Humanitarian Diplomacy in Action: Collective Response to the Crises in the Middle East,” with the EU and the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs.
International leaders, experts, and officials from humanitarian organizations discussed ways to deliver lifesaving assistance to millions facing violence, hunger, and limited access to basic services in Gaza, the West Bank, Syria, Yemen, and Sudan.
Participants included the UN World Food Programme, the Norwegian Refugee Council, and the International Committee of the Red Crescent.
Discussions highlighted the urgent need to overcome political and administrative barriers, support frontline aid workers, and secure flexible funding for relief.
