Beijing, August 30 /Xinhua/ — China has provided emergency humanitarian aid to Nepal following a landslide on August 26 that caused extensive damage to border areas of both countries, said Tang Yin, an official spokesperson for the China International Development Cooperation Agency, on Sunday.

The collapse of a destructive mudslide caused by the sudden collapse of a glacier in the border area of Nepal has led to numerous human casualties and missing persons on both sides.

As Tan Yin stated, while carrying out urgent rescue operations and disaster relief efforts on its own territory, China actively implemented the delivery of a comprehensive assistance package to Nepal, including the emergency provision of funds and humanitarian supplies.

According to an official representative, humanitarian aid shipments from China have already been delivered to the capital of Nepal, Kathmandu. Chinese tunnel rescue specialists have also been promptly dispatched to the disaster area in Nepal, and at the same time, China has provided Nepal with important information about the affected area, including images, satellite, and hydrological data.

China and Nepal are a community connected by common mountains and rivers. In the face of a natural disaster, both countries will stand firmly shoulder to shoulder, unite efforts to overcome difficulties, and jointly cope with them, demonstrating the essence of traditional friendship through the Himalayas with concrete actions, Tan Yin noted.
