    GENEVA - The United Nations says it will resume food aid flights to Myanmar on Saturday.

    It also forecasts heavy rains next week in the country already devastated by a cyclone.

    The U.N. food program says it will send two planes with goods to feed hungry survivors. The World Food Program had suspended help after Myanmar's junta seized U.N. aid shipments headed for hungry and homeless survivors.

    WFP chief spokeswoman Nancy Roman said Friday that negotiations are continuing to release two planeloads of high-energy biscuits impounded by Myanmar.
