BEIJING–(ENEWSPF)–19 April 2010 – As teams of rescuers continue to search for survivors in earthquake flattened Jiegu Town, on the 4000 metre high Tibetan plateau, the immediate danger to children from cold weather has emerged. Over the weekend many residents slept in the open in sub-zero temperatures, trying to keep warm under blankets. UNICEF is now responding to requests from education and health authorities for assistance, and closely collaborating with other UN agencies.
