The United Nations said it has suspended aid missions to two areas in Pakistan’s quake-hit Kashmir region after dozens of survivors stormed two UN helicopters and forced an airlift.

PAKISTANI and US military helicopters delivered aid at a brisk pace to the earthquake-stricken region of Kashmir yesterday.

The UN World Food Programme today warned that half a million earthquake survivors had yet to receive relief supplies, and Pakistan’s president said during a visit to a quake-stricken town that he had appealed to the international community for more tents to shelter the homeless.
