Island donates to help humanitarian crisis in Africa

£50,000 has been sent to help aid the humanitarian crisis in East Africa.

The money, from the Isle of Man's Emergency Aid Budget, will help agencies working in South Sudan, Somalia, Kenya and Ethiopia. 

Drought and conflict has left 16 million people on the brink of starvation and in urgent need of food, water and medical treatment. 

It brings the total amount of support given by the Manx Government to £100,000.
