Dr Moataz al-Tayeb, programme manager at QRCS’ representation office in Sudan, explained that the new shipment constitutes phase two of the land relief convoys programme, following phase one which involved 21 trucks.

He said effective coordination with the Ministry of Health and NMSF helped accelerate the delivery of medical aid.

Dr Ali Babiker commended the nonstop Qatari humanitarian and medical support provided by QFFD and QRCS.
