The Chinese Embassy has granted 10,000 USD as relief aid to flood victims in central provinces of Vietnam.

The donation was handed over to a representative of the Vietnamese Foreign Ministry in Hanoi on October 8, according to the ministry.

Recently, rain-triggered floods have seriously damaged provinces in the northern-central region, leaving 52 people dead, 24 others missing and inundating thousands of houses as well as large areas of rice and crops./.
