    MOSCOW -- A special plane Il-76 of the Russian Emergency Situations
    Ministry flew to Beslan from the Moscow Domodedovo airport at 10.40 on
    Saturday to bring another group of 15 injured in the Beslan terrorist
    attack to the Russian capital. There are both children and adults
    in this group.

    The same flight will take to North Ossetia a group of specialists from
    the federal centre of emergency medicine Zashchita (Protection). Their
    task will be to assess the condition of the injured and to accompany
    the patients during the flight. The plane with the injured is scheduled
    to arrive in Moscow towards Saturday evening.

    Besides, it will bring to the North Ossetian town four tonnes of
    medicines provided by the Russian Red Cross. "All these medicines are
    necessary for treating the injured," a representative of the Emergency
    Situations Ministry said. He stressed that as of September 4, when
    the first plane with medical equipment on board from Italy landed
    in Beslan, almost 150 tonnes of international humanitarian cargoes,
    including donor blood, have been delivered to this North Ossetian
    city from Greece and Armenia.

    According to the Emergency Situations Ministry, as of September 4,
    planes of the Emergency Situations and Defence Ministries have brought
    114 people, the majority of who are children, to the Russian capital
    from Beslan.
