Sudan donor conference in Berlin

Sudan donor conference in Berlin

The Berlin conference brought together leaders from the EU, France, and the UK to mobilize support for a conflict that many fear has been 'abandoned' by the global community.

While the financial commitments exceeded initial targets, the Sudanese government has slammed the event as an unacceptable interference in its internal affairs.

Aid organizations have warned that the war in the Middle East is compounding Sudan's hunger crisis by disrupting fertilizer supplies.

The pledged aid will be used to provide food, water, and medical care to the 13 million people who have been forced to flee their homes since the fighting began.
