    MOSCOW, September 10 -- Humanitarian aid is supplied to the small
    North Ossetian city of Beslan affected in the terrorist act from all
    over the world. About 150 tonnes of humanitarian aid were supplied
    after the tragic events in North Ossetia, a source in the Russian
    Emergencies Ministry told Itar-Tass on Friday. "This is medicines,
    medical equipment, bandages, syringes, mobile medical stations,
    donor blood and ambulances," the source emphasised.

    Airplanes from Russian cities, CIS and other countries with
    humanitarian aid have come to Beslan already for a week.

    In particular, only Moscow, St. Petersburg and Mineralnye Vody sent
    39 tonnes of medicines and foodstuffs in this North Ossetian city.
    Italy, the United States, France, Norway, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Greece,
    Austria, Germany, Bulgaria, Poland and Finland sent humanitarian
    aid. The authorities of these countries sent to Beslan not only
    medical equipment and medicines that are needed for the treatment
    of the terror victims but also foodstuffs and clothes. Citizens of
    Armenia and Greece have donated more than 200 kilograms of blood for
    the wounded people in the terrorist act, and this blood has already
    been supplied to the Vladikavkaz blood donor station.
