China Red Cross' second batch of aid arrives in Myanmar
The second batch of humanitarian relief supplies donated by the Red Cross Society of China to quake-stricken Myanmar arrived in the city of Mandalay near the epicenter in the evening of Tuesday, said the organization.
China's Red Cross sent four heavy-duty trucks loaded with emergency equipment to address hygiene, epidemic prevention and livelihood needs in affected areas. Key equipment include clean water units, mobile toilets, electric generators, lighting and disinfection devices.
These supplies were transported through a land port in Southwest China's Kunming, Yunan province, and reached Mandalay under the escort of local police.
The 7.9 magnitude quake hit Myanmar with an epicenter near Mandalay on March 28.
The first batch of relief supplies from China's Red Cross comprised mainly tends, blankets, folding beds and family kits arrived in Mandalay on April 2.
