Official: UN plane lands in Myanmar with aid after cyclone(AP)
Thursday, 05.08.2008, 04:11am (GMT-7)

Indonesian military and airport personnel load aid onto an Indonesian army plane bound for Myanmar Thursday May 8, 2008 in Jakarta, Indonesia. The international relief effort for hundreds of thousands of Myanmar cyclone victims picked up speed, but aid operations continued to be hampered by the Myanmar government's stalling on issuing visas to aid workers. (AP Photo/Dita Alangkara)AP - Myanmar's isolationist regime allowed the first plane of a major international airlift to land Thursday with aid for cyclone survivors, a U.N. official said, amid fears that lack of safe food and drinking water could push the death toll above 100,000.
