KABUL, Jan. 30 (Xinhua) -- Afghanistan's caretaker government began to deliver China-aided humanitarian food supplies to four provinces, an official has said.

The supplies, which will be shipped by 26 cargo trucks to southern Kandahar and Helmand provinces and western Farah and Ghor provinces, included 848 tons of rice and wheat, Hasal Khan Musleh from the Ministry of Refugees and Repatriation told reporters on Saturday.

Musleh said that Afghanistan has received several batches of humanitarian supplies donated by China, which are being sent to the vulnerable people in the country's 34 provinces.

Earlier in January, the ministry transported 440 tons of China-donated rice to 10 most vulnerable provinces.

The official expressed gratitude to China for the humanitarian assistance.

China has sent batches of humanitarian assistance including foodstuff, COVID-19 vaccines and winter clothes to Afghanistan.
