The first batch of Chinese humanitarian aid has reached Ukraine. The consignment, which includes 1,000 family kits containing daily supplies worth 5 million yuan ($800,000), crossed the Ukraine-Romania border on Friday, having being delivered by plane to Bucharest Airport.
The packs contain blankets, towels, cutlery, damp-proof mats, buckets and torches, and were sent from Beijing by the Red Cross Society of China.
Ukraine's Red Cross Society will receive the consignment when the truck convoy containing the aid arrives in the western Ukrainian city of Chernivtsi.
A second batch of materials will leave the Chinese capital on Sunday.
