The World Food Program says it has flown its final aid flight to Burma's cyclone-ravaged Irrawaddy Delta.
A
statement from the group says the flight took off Friday from Bangkok's
Don Mueang airport. The airport has served as a staging point for
sending supplies to Burma since the country's military-rulers first
allowed foreign aid flights in late May, weeks after the storm hit.
Cyclone
Nargis hit Burma on May 2 and 3, leaving at least 134,000
people dead or missing as it tore across the country's agricultural
belt.
The WFP says that since its flights began on May 24, it
has flown nearly 4,000 tons of cargo to Burma, including
shelter material, mosquito nets and water purification equipment.
Some information for this report was provided by AFP.
