Storyline: The first batch of 18,000 much-needed relief items arrived in north China's flood-hit Hebei Province by Tuesday morning, with local authorities coordinating the distribution process in an orderly manner. The urgently needed supplies, including cotton coats, folding beds, and blankets, were allocated by the Hebei Provincial Emergency Management Department and the National Food and Strategic Reserves Administration. In Fuping County of Hebei's Baoding City, emergency workers at a temporary relief supplies warehouse were rushing to unload the supplies to ensure they could be delivered to the affected areas as soon as possible. At 13:00, staff members of the emergency management bureau began distributing relief supplies to 13 townships, where the relief items would then be transported to the local resettlement sites. By 15:00, a temporary shelter in Fangtaikou Village had received the supplies, and relocated villagers immediately put on new bedding. "The mattress is soft and comfortable, and with the blanket, it's both cozy and cool," said Luo Junping, a villager. Torrential rains have wreaked havoc across northern China, forcing evacuations, and leaving eight people dead in Hebei Province.
