What does "among other donors" in the last sentence mean? Does it mean "there are other donors which also make great increases" or "among the donors except the three largest donors"?

The three largest donors continue to be the US, Germany and the
UK. These countries accounted for 52% of all government contributions, although
contributions from all three decreased in 2018. Among other donors, substantial
increases were made by the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia, providing an
additional US$1.7 billion (567% rise) and US$806 million (173% rise) in 2018, respectively.​

Answer:

there are other donors which also make great increases

Step-by-step explanation:

The first few sentences mention how the top three donors accounted for contributions, and then the last sentence talks of other countries that made "substantial increases".
