A Saudi humanitarian aid plane arrived at the Port Sudan International Airport in Sudan on Thursday carrying ten tons of food and medical supplies.

 

The aid plane, the third sent to Sudan since the fighting erupted in mid-April, is part of the humanitarian corridor launched by the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center, at the directives of King Salman and Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Crown Prince and Prime Minister.

 

The Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques and the Crown Prince gave directives early this week to launch a $100 million fundraising campaign through the Sahem platform to assist the Sudanese people following the outbreak of the clashes.

 

KSRelief also launched the Athar program for volunteers wishing to travel to Sudan and provide urgent medical or emergency assistance there.
