The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has announced an emergency humanitarian response worth US$30 million to support civilians affected by the deteriorating situation in El Obeid, North Kordofan, Sudan.
Under the directives of President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the assistance will be delivered through the UAE’s Aid Agency, reflecting its longstanding humanitarian approach and its continued commitment to supporting the brotherly Sudanese people.
The response comes amid the serious deterioration of humanitarian conditions in El Obeid and surrounding areas, where civilians and displaced persons face mounting urgent needs for food security, healthcare, safe drinking water and shelter.
