Ammon News - AMMONNEWS - The WFP has welcomed a contribution of more than $15 million from the Japanese government that will support almost 6 million people affected by the ongoing crisis inside Syria and neighbouring countries, according to a statement released by the UN agency on Sunday.

This contribution will enable the WFP to continue providing vital food assistance to the most vulnerable families inside Syria and to Syrians taking refuge in neighbouring countries. A portion will also be used to support vulnerable Jordanians who have been impacted by the crisis, the statement said.
