Qatar Charity Launches Urgent Flood Relief Response for Sudan

Doha, October 04 (QNA) - Qatar Charity (QC) has launched an emergency relief intervention to aid thousands of affected families, powered by the generosity of donors in Qatar, and in swift response to the catastrophic floods that struck several Sudanese states.

QC stated Saturday that the initiative aims to deliver essential supplies and support to communities already burdened by the ongoing conflict. The response comes at a critical time, with the autumn season approaching and heightened risks of disease outbreaks.

Qatar Charity plans to deliver emergency assistance to over 100,000 of Sudan’s most vulnerable flood victims across four states: Khartoum, White Nile, Al Jazirah, and River Nile.

Water levels in the Nile, Blue Nile, and White Nile have risen to unprecedented heights, devastating homes and farmland and leaving thousands displaced and in urgent need of shelter and aid.

Qatar Charity’s field teams in Sudan have begun assessing urgent needs in food, shelter, and health, with a focus on vulnerable groups, women, children, the elderly, and people with disabilities, to help them recover from the initial shock and rebuild their lives.
