The European Commission has allocated a further €40 million for life-saving humanitarian assistance to the victims of the Darfur crisis in Sudan. The funding includes €26 million in support of the efforts of the World Food Programme to meet growing nutritional needs in the crisis zone. Other activities being financed include protection and the UN humanitarian air services (UNHAS) which provide vital links to otherwise inaccessible areas. This new humanitarian aid builds on previous Commission decisions for the region. |
