Save the Children: 9,000 children in need

Albania's Prime Minister Edi Rama announced additional benefits for all injured by the November 26th powerful earthquake.

Thus, the government has decided that for all affected by the quake, the first task will be their home. The prime minister called for the immediate contact with the builders to accommodate as many families in undamaged remaining stock apartments as possible -- unscathed apartments in new housing complexes.

In addition to free housing and food, all affected by the earthquake will be guaranteed treatment for any free illness.

Also in hotels where the injured are accommodated, there will be additional aid teachers who will assist the children in the course of school.

Meanwhile, all those who will have to go to work, the state will pay the fuel for car movements. / A T S/
