Operational Updates
• Since early November, Ethiopian refugees and asylum seekers have been arriving in eastern Sudan, fleeing conflict in the Tigray region of north western Ethiopia.
WFP is working with partners and authorities in Sudan to provide life-saving food and nutrition assistance to the arriving refugees from Ethiopia. Food for hot meals or fortified high-energy biscuits are provided at reception centres. Once refugees reach the camps after passing through reception centres, they receive rations including lentils, sorghum, oil and salt.
