As the Sudanese crisis’ front lines continue to shift, over 33.7 million people are now in need of assistance, far exceeding the funds currently available for humanitarian responses (OCHA, July 2026). ​ Especially across the Darfurs and Kordofans, needs continue to grow and NGOs need to plan interventions within these financial constraints, particularly for WASH responses.​ Solidarités International (SI) is proactively adapting its activities and areas of intervention to provide support to the most vulnerable internally displaced persons (IDPs), host communities, and returnees.​ This newsletter will focus on: Opening new areas of intervention in East Darfur and West Kordofan​ Market Support and Cash and Voucher Assistance (CVA) across Sudan​ SI’s response to the African Horse Sickness epidemic in Tawila​ Restoring dignity through accessible sanitation in Al Jazira State

Country: Venezuela (Bolivarian Republic of) Source: Association of Medical Doctors of Asia Please refer to the attached file. On 9 August, AMDA dispatched a Japanese nurse for the ongoing quake response efforts in Venezuela. Venezuela suffered extensive damage following two earthquakes measuring 7.2 and 7.5 in magnitude that struck in succession on 24 June 2026. According to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UNOCHA), the earthquakes have claimed 5,546 lives and injured 16,740 people. More than 1,500 aftershocks have also been recorded in the affected areas, as of 31 July. For more than a month, AMDA has been providing medical support in Caraballeda, La Guaira, one of the areas hardest hit by the earthquakes, where numerous buildings collapsed. Following the conclusion of activities by AMDA’s Japanese doctor and nurse on 31 July, the AMDA team, comprising local medical professionals and coordinators, continued to provide care at a temporary clinic in Caraballeda, with local volunteers and other organizations supporting the affected community. Among those who visited the clinic between 27-30 July was a mother who brought her baby in, stating that she was concerned about her child’s cough and diarrhea. The doctors reassured her that symptoms were nothing to worry about after examining the infant. There was also a patient with severe insect bites stemming from sleeping outdoors after losing one’s house. On the afternoon of 30 July, the team met with His Excellency Yasushi Sato, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Japan to Venezuela, at the Ambassador’s official residence. During the meeting, they reported on AMDA’s activities to date, the situation on the ground and plans for future assistance. On 31 July, 208 patients (well above the usual number) visited the temporary clinic, including 127 who received dental care at a special dental clinic set up that day. After the weekend, the clinic returned to its regular schedule on 3 August, seeing 74 patients that day, 37 on 4 August, and 93 on 5 August. Respiratory conditions and symptoms, including cough, bronchospasm, and bronchitis, were particularly common. There were also cases in which chronic conditions such as hypertension and diabetes had worsened. A patient with suspected cholecystitis was referred to a nearby hospital for further evaluation and treatment. Although numerous natural disasters have been occurring in different locations around the world, AMDA will continue doing what it can to save those affected by them.
