China will deliver humanitarian aid worth 10 million yuan (US$1.48 million) to flood-ravaged Pakistan, China's Ministry of Commerce (MOC) announced Sunday.

The charitable assistance was offered to help Pakistan' s government fight the flooding and rescue victims, the MOC said in a brief statement posted on its website.

The Pakistan government kicked off an emergency rescue and relief operation on July 30 after declaring an emergency in the flood-struck northwestern province of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP).
