BEIJING, Sept. 9 -- The Red Cross Society of China (RCSC) has decided to provide the Moroccan Red Crescent with 200,000 U.S. dollars in cash as emergency humanitarian assistance to assist in its rescue operations.

Strong earthquakes jolted Morocco on Friday night local time, resulting in huge casualties and property loss.

The RCSC said it would keep abreast of the relief needs in Morocco and pledged to offer assistance to the best of its ability.
