British Development Minister Annalize Dodds announced the United Kingdom’s contribution of two million pounds ($2.6 million) to support Sudanese refugees fleeing violence.
Dodds said that this funding came for the humanitarian response in the Kufra region in eastern Libya, where the United Nations estimates that up to 45,000 Sudanese refugees are in urgent need of support.
In a statement carried by the British News Agency, Dodds affirmed the United Kingdom’s commitment to providing life-saving assistance to children and the most vulnerable groups as they flee violence in Sudan.
She indicated that this support will work alongside international partners to provide the necessary water, health services, sanitation and hygiene for these displaced refugees.
On Monday I promised humanitarian aid to those who need it most.
Today we’re delivering vital support to alleviate the suffering of those fleeing violence.
All part of our plan to restore the UK’s development reputation.
