1. (SBU) The humanitarian situation in Padang is

sanitation, and hygiene. Preliminary USAID Disaster
Assistance Response Team assessments suggest Agam and
Padang Pariaman are the most affected areas.

patients in Padang. U.S. forces also delivered five
tons of food and nine tons of cargo, including
