Saudi plane carrying aid lands in Syria, first in decade

A SAUDI Arabian plane carrying aid to quake-hit Syria landed in second city Aleppo Tuesday – the first in more than a decade of war, a transport ministry official told AFP.

Planeloads of foreign aid have landed in Syria since a 7.8-magnitude quake struck the war-torn country and neighbouring Turkey killing more than 35,000 people.
