China to Offer Aid to DPRK for Train Accident

Chinese Ministry of Commerce announced Saturday that the Chinese government decided to offer aid to the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) for a train explosion.

The assistance valued at 10 million yuan (US$1.21 million) will be given to the DPRK side in a few days, which includes food, medicine, medical equipment and tents, sources said.

A massive explosion took place when two fuel-laden trains collided on Thursday afternoon near a DPRK station in Ryongchon. To express sympathy to the DPRK people, the Chinese government decided to provide the assistance to the DPRK government for its rescue work, sources said.
