Russia To Send Humanitarian Aid To Cuba
MOSCOW, Oct 31 (BERNAMA-NNN-PRENSA LATINA) -- The Russian Ministry of
Emergency Situations plans to send humanitarian aid to Cuba hit by
Hurricane Sandy, a source from the ministry's information department
said Tuesday.
The ministry will also be sending a plane filled with construction
materials to help with the rebuilding of destroyed homes, the source

The hardest hit areas of the island are the eastern parts. However, the
region is returning to normal.
