Earthquake survivors celebrating Eid; UN relief flights resumed

MUZAFFARABAD: Earthquake survivors celebrating Eid-ul-Azha in tent settlements amid frosty winds and snowfall in the quake zone.

United Nations relief flights have been resumed in quake-hit areas of Azad Kashmir after three days stoppage.

In Muzaffarabad, the quake-shattered capital of Azad Kashmir, there were few people buying sheep or cows to slaughter on Eid. Many charity organisations as well as Islamic groups had set up camps in the city to slaughter animals and distribute meat among quake survivors.

Meanwhile Britain has donated $ 10 million to United Nations for relief operations in the quake-stricken areas.
