The servicemen will study the scene and outline a rescue plan right after they reach there, scheduled for Monday night, said Tỵ.

This is the first time Việt Nam has deployed search and rescue forces in coordination with other countries following a natural disaster.

Phạm Thị Vân Anh, a member of the Vietnamese community said that the group has made tremendous efforts to gather goods to catch the donation flight to Syria.
She added that the group has also contacted the Vietnamese in Turkey, but decided on sending support to Syria first, as there is no Vietnamese community there. The Syrian people are facing multiple difficulties due to sanctions imposed on the country, she said.
Since the disastrous earthquake took place on Monday last week, many people in Moscow have volunteered at the Syrian embassy to receive, sort, pack and transport relief supplies to the victims in Syria. — VNS
