22 July, 2015 – The Italian Government supports the South Sudanese affected by the conflict who fled to Sudan. The contribution of approximately €500.000 will be used by the World Food Programme of the United Nations to provide food assistance for about three months to more than 13,000 South Sudanese who sought refuge in two locations of South Kordofan, Sudan. “Italy is at the forefront of the action in supporting vulnerable populations in Sudan. Our mission is to help people in need, and the WFP is a partner we know we can rely on,” explained the Italian Ambassador to Sudan Fabrizio Lobasso.
