Greece on Thursday sent some additional aid to earthquake-stricken neighboring Albania, in the form of three mobile cooking units, courtesy of the Greek army, transported to capital Tirana by the Greek Air Force, upon initiative of Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis.
Greece's relief response thus far includes two Special Disaster Unit (EMAK) rescue teams, namely twenty-five members of the 1st EMAK with a sniffer dog and another 15 members of the 5th EMAK with vehicles and special equipment.
The deadly 6.4 Richter scale tremor that shook Albania on Tuesday has so far claimed the lives of 49 people and has had at least 900 injured.
