Expansion of aid to Nepal
The trauma team, composed of medics and firefighters, will remain in Malamchi, Nepal, for around another two weeks. At the end of the week a Czech army plane will convey new supplies to the area, along with a ten-member team, who will replace some of the aid workers currently on site. The Government decided to extend the mission after a series of earthquakes.
