Two military cargo aircraft carrying humanitarian aid arrived at Khartoum International Airport from Egypt to support Sudanese affected by floods.
Minister of Social Development Ahmed Adam Bakheet told the press that the two aircraft will be followed by seven others.
Bakheet added that Sudan received Egyptian aid during the pandemic and the floods last year, noting the historic stances of the Egyptian leadership and people towards Sudan.
He announced that more aid will arrive by Thursday.
The minister further appreciated the support shown by the Egyptians, the leadership, and President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi. According to Bakheet, this would reinforce the historic bilateral ties.
Egypt's ambassador to Khartoum Hossam Issa said that the two aircraft carried medicine and aid to those affected by the floods. The shipments also include tents and medical equipment, he pointed out.
Issa said this falls under the full cooperation between the Sudanese and Egyptian institutions in dealing with flood victims.
