Foreign Minister Nabil Fahmi and Arab League Secretary-General Nabil El-Arabi returned here on Wednesday coming from Kuwait where they attended an international donor conference intended to help the world body reach a $6.5 billion aid target for the crisis in 2014. During the conference, several donor nations have each pledged tens of millions of dollars for civilians affected by the Syrian crisis. The pledges included $500 million from Kuwait and $380 million from the US. The UN wants $6.5 billion for the effort to assist Syrian refugees. It's the largest-ever appeal for a single crisis.
