UN helicopters take aid to remote cyclone villages
UN helicopters fanned out across Burma’s devastated Irrawaddy Delta for the first time today, ferrying critical supplies to villages which have been struggling to survive since the May 2-3 cyclone, an official said.
Four helicopters which arrived over the weekend got to work today, shuttling food and other emergency supplies to villages around the hardest-hit towns of Bogale and Labutta, said UN World Food Programme spokesman Paul Risley.
