Countries participating in the French-hosted International Humanitarian Conference for Sudan pledged to allocate a combined total of over 840 million euros ($893 million) toward supporting the African country and its neighbors through an armed conflict that marked one year on Monday. The pool of donation pledges included 350 million euros from the EU, 244 million euros from Germany, 138 million euros from the US and 110 million euros from France. In addition to the leaders of EU member states, the conference in Paris was also attended by the ambassadors and foreign ministers of African countries around Sudan, including South Sudan, Chad, Kenya and Djibouti, among others, as well as about 40 Sudanese civic leaders as well as heads of the largest international humanitarian organizations. In April 2023, clashes broke out between the Sudanese army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces. The parties to the conflict have since introduced a number of temporary nationwide ceasefires, but none has helped settle the conflict. Sudanese Health Minister Haitham Mohamed Ibrahim told Sputnik in a comment published earlier on Monday that more than 13,000 people had been killed and over 30,000 others injured over one year of the armed conflict in Sudan.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Monday marked one year since the start of violent clashes between the Sudanese army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, which have claimed thousands of lives and put the country at risk of the worst famine in human history.
Countries participating in the French-hosted International Humanitarian Conference for Sudan pledged to allocate a combined total of over 840 million euros ($893 million) toward supporting the African country and its neighbors
through an armed conflict that marked one year on Monday.
The pool of donation pledges included 350 million euros from the EU, 244 million euros from Germany, 138 million euros from the US and 110 million euros from France.
In addition to the leaders of EU member states, the conference in Paris was also attended by the ambassadors and foreign ministers of African countries around Sudan, including South Sudan, Chad, Kenya and Djibouti, among others, as well as about 40 Sudanese civic leaders as well as heads of the largest international humanitarian organizations.
