　　China's second batch of emergency humanitarian aid for Nepal's mudslide relief efforts arrived in Kathmandu on Tuesday, following devastating mudslides triggered by a glacier collapse on Aug 26.

　　The shipment weighed about 5.8 metric tons and included urgently needed supplies such as water purification and lighting equipment, genetic testing equipment and drones, according to Luo Feiyu, a staff member with the China International Center for Economic and Technical Exchanges under the Ministry of Commerce.

　　The supplies were urgently sourced, consolidated and transported overnight through coordination between the Foreign Ministry, the Ministry of Commerce, the General Administration of Customs, the China International Development Cooperation Agency and other departments, Luo said.

　　Five experts from Shenzhen also departed for the disaster-hit areas in Nepal on Tuesday.

　　Chinese DNA identification experts will also travel to the affected areas to assist Nepal with its relief efforts, Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun said at a regular news conference on Tuesday.

　　A sudden glacier collapse in Nepal's border area on Aug 26 triggered severe mudslides, causing significant casualties and leaving many people missing in both China and Nepal.
