The Croatian government decided on Thursday to donate some 200,000 euros to the victims of the devastating earthquake in China

The aid will be sent through the Croatian Red Cross, which has already started raising aid for the victims, the official Hina news agency reported.

More than 50,000 people are feared dead in the earthquake that hit China's southwest Sichuan province on Monday, leaving more than 100,000 injured and the same number of people still buried in the rubble.
