Central Bank of Sudan Buiding

May 19 (Reuters) - Saudi Arabia said on Sunday it deposited $250 million (Kshs. 25 billion) with the Sudanese central bank, according to a statement from the kingdom's ministry of finance.

Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates pledged to send $3 billion worth of aid to Sudan, after mass protests led to the ouster of president Omar al-Bashir last month.
