Fatal floods sweep eastern Sudan. Ten days of torrential rains resulted in major flooding
in Sudan’s Red Sea state, leaving 33 people perished and many still missing. Villages
near Tokar, 150 kilometers from Port Sudan, bore the brunt of the disasters. Police Chief
Ali Sukar of Agige District said that although state services were rendering assistance and
searching for the missing, additional aid would be appreciated.
Upon hearing of the calamitous situation, Supreme Master Ching Hai conveyed her sincere
sympathies and prayers, requesting that our nearby Association members please go if possible
to offer help. She added that necessary funds are available, and that a donation could be
a sent through the Red Cross or another organization if our Association members cannot go.
Our gratefulness, officials and personnel, for your helpful endeavors, as we also thank
Supreme Master Ching Hai for her caring support. With our prayers for the stability of people
of Sudan, may such devastating conditions be minimized as our increased benevolence
helps restore planetary balance�
