KHARTOUM, SUDAN: A team from King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre (KSrelief) recently delivered medical assistance to hospitals and health centers in Khartoum to meet the needs of the country’s flood-affected population. The delivery ceremony was attended by Saudi Arabia’s Ambassador to Sudan, Ali bin Hassan Jafar, and officials from the Alegtinam Organization for Human Development, KSrelief’s local partner.
