Eastern Chad: Launching a mass distribution of supplies for Sudanese refugees

Doctors Without Borders (MSF) has launched a mass distribution of plastic sheeting, mosquito nets, and soap for hundreds of thousands of Sudanese refugees in eastern Chad amid a critical gap in humanitarian aid by United Nations agencies.
The rainy season is beginning in eastern Chad, where more than 600,000 people have fled the war in Sudan since April 2023, but many families have not yet received any assistance to construct shelters or meet other basic needs.
MSF teams began distributions on June 24 in Adré transit camp, a temporary home to more than 180,000 people according to UN estimates, who are predominantly women and children from Sudan's Darfur region.
