MEXICO CITY – Mexico has withdrawn its offer to aid victims of Hurricane Harvey in Texas due to demands on its emergency services from a massive earthquake that struck late last week, the foreign ministry said in a statement on Monday.
Mexico’s government offered to send food, beds, generators, mobile kitchens as well as doctors after torrential rains from Harvey flooded vast parts of Houston.
But the earthquake that struck southern Mexico on Thursday killed at least 96 people and left some 2.5 million people in need of aid.
