Turkish aid organizations on Sunday reached out to thousands of families affected by flash floods in the north of Sudan's capital Khartoum.
They distributed food packages and in the coming days will address housing needs of the displaced.
Turkey's ambassador to Khartoum Irfan Neziroğlu and Turkish Red Crescent Director-General Ibrahim Altan were also briefed about the situation during their visit to the affected area.
"There was no loss of life in this region, but the damage of material is too much. The Red Crescent and non-governmental organizations have distributed aid and I hope help will continue to come," Neziroğlu said.
The Turkish envoy said they aimed to establish a small Turkish village with the help of Turkish business people in Sudan.
