Relief aid on way to North Korea
Flooding that may have killed thousands in North Korea is being ignored because of the country’s pariah status after recent missile launches, a South Korean aid group said today as it prepared to ship aid for victims.
Eight containers carrying 100 tonnes of flour, 37,500 packs of instant noodles and 15,000 pieces of clothing and candles were being loaded into the cargo ship at the port of Incheon on the western coast of the peninsula.
