BERLIN: Berlin zoo said Monday (Sep 2) its resident panda Meng Meng had delivered twins, as it voiced delight at the first such births in the country.

The panda delivered its first cub on Saturday evening. About an hour later, a second baby was born.

Their genders have not been determined, the zoo said, although the two cubs weighed in at 136 and 186 grams. Famed for its"panda diplomacy", China has dispatched its national treasure to only about a dozen countries as a symbol of close relations.The zoo pays US$15 million for a 15-year contract to host them, with most of the money going towards a conservation and breeding research programme in China.
