The pledge is the largest made by any country since the disaster, the Kuwait News Agency reported on Wednesday.
It will assist UN organizations in providing food, education, shelter, healthcare and other necessities to approximately 18 million affected people.
The UN has appealed for $398 million for an urgent response in Syria and $1 billion for Turkiye.
So far, 79 percent of the target number for Syria has been met, while 19 percent of the target number for Turkiye has been met.
Martin Griffiths, UN undersecretary-general for humanitarian affairs and emergency relief coordinator, expressed concern that the amount of funding is nowhere near the target, but praised Kuwait’s pledge.
