Chinese nationals board a chartered flight provided by Beijing that will evacuate them from the troubled Solomon Islands after they lost all their possessions in the recent riots in Honiara April 23, 2006. Australia is sending additional troops to the Solomon Islands, as more Chinese fled the country on Sunday amid rising tensions before parliament opens for the first time since post-election rioting.
