The same flight will take to North Ossetia a group of specialists from

Besides, it will bring to the North Ossetian town four tonnes of

in Beslan, almost 150 tonnes of international humanitarian cargoes,
including donor blood, have been delivered to this North Ossetian
city from Greece and Armenia.
