THE third plane carrying Qatari humanitarian aid landed at Khartoum Airport on Saturday, as part of Qatar Charity’s (QC) campaign titled ‘Peace for Sudan’, which aims at supporting those affected by torrents and floods in the country.

He added that the total quantity of aid to be carried by the two planes to Sudan is 65 tonnes of shelter and other materials, including 546 shelter tents, 5,800 blankets, 15 field hospital tents and 15 mobile school tents.
