MosNews
Russia’s Emergency Ministry has sent two planes with humanitarian aid to Sri Lanka, where an earthquake-caused tsunami devastated the south Asian coast Sunday morning, leaving over 15,000 people dead.
The planes are carrying, among other goods, 25 tons of tents, the Itar-Tass news agency quoted Viktor Beltsov, advisor to the minister for emergency situations.
Apart from aid Russia is also sending a BO-105 rescue helicopter and a group of experienced rescuers.
The government of Sri Lanka asked Russia for help after a massive undersea earthquake below the Indian Ocean sent huge walls of water smashing into coastlines across Asia on Sunday. Sri Lanka and Indonesia were the worst hit among eight affected countries.
The earthquake was the world’s worst in 40 years.
Sri Lanka, India and Indonesia suffered the highest death tolls, but Thailand, Malaysia, Myanmar and Bangladesh were also hit by the surging walls of water. Government officials estimate in Sri Lanka alone, 800,000 people were forced from their homes.

Venäjän apu on olemattoman pientä verrattuna USA:n antamaan miljardien dollarien apuun
Venäjällä olisi varaa paljon enempäänkin mutta puuttuu hyvää tahtoa
Mutta jos avun suhteuttaa esimerkiksi Venäjän ja Suomen asukaslukuihin tai tai maiden Thaimaassa menehtyneiden ihmisuhrien lukumäärään, on Venäjän apu moninkertainen Suomeen verrattuna...
Typerä vertaus. Pässikin tietää että USAlla on noin miljoona kertaa enemmän mistä antaa.
Mutta sitten jos avun suhteuttaa esimerkiksi Venäjän ja Suomen asukaslukuihin tai tai maiden Thaimaassa menehtyneiden ihmisuhrien lukumäärään, on Venäjän apu moninkertainen Suomeen verrattuna...
olevan sitä mainitsemaasi hyvää tahtoa,anna sitä myös meille.Sinä suorastaan loistat rakkautta ja hyvyyttä. :). Jumala sinut huomatkoon.Tekosi ja ajatuksesi ja sinut palkitkoon, ansiosi mukaan.
