The third batch of Chinese relief aid to the tsunami-stricken Sri Lanka arrived in Colombo late on Saturday.

The aid items cover 770 sets of gasoline generators, a huge package of food and medicine, according to "the list of emergency relief goods" being attached to the goods.

Sources from the Chinese embassy told Xinhua at the airport that the relief goods will be handed over to Sri Lanka's Ministry of Welfare and then delivered to the affected areas.

The Chinese government has sent to Sri Lanka the first package of aid items on Dec. 29 last year and the second on Jan. 4.
