An IAF C17 brought its replenishment as also food aid for needy communities, and carried our NDRF team back after a successful Mission."

India continued to show solidarity with the Myanmar government to tackle the crisis following the severe earthquake that hit the region by sending 442 tonnes of food aid to the neighbouring nation as a part of humanitarian aid.
