Foreign support, supplies continue to arrive in China

Foreign aid to the relief effort continued to flow in over the weekend.

Russia, which was among the first countries to offer aid after the quake, delivered additional supplies on Sunday.

"An Il-76 cargo plane of the Emergency Situations Ministry carrying about 30 tons of disaster relief materials, including blankets and tents that are mostly needed, departed from Ramenskoye near Moscow," the Interfax news agency quoted the ministry as saying.
