South Sudan: EU provides €2 million in emergency humanitarian funding for victims of floods

The European Commission has allocated emergency humanitarian funding of €2 million for those affected by recent unprecedented floods in South Sudan.

To date, an estimated 40 people have died and over 750,000 people are affected. Many people had to flee their homes due to the floods in 31 of the 78 counties of the country, including most famine- affected areas.

Projections indicate that over 1 million people may be affected by those floods by the end of the year.
