|March 30, 2025
In the aftermath of the devastating 7.7-magnitude earthquake that struck Myanmar on March 28, 2025, India has launched "Operation Brahma" to provide urgent humanitarian assistance to its neighbor.
The earthquake, with its epicenter near Mandalay, has resulted in over 1,000 fatalities and approximately 2,376 injuries, causing widespread destruction across central Myanmar.
Under "Operation Brahma," the Indian Air Force dispatched a C-130J aircraft carrying approximately 15 tonnes of relief materials to Yangon. The consignment includes essential items such as tents, blankets, sleeping bags, food packets, hygiene kits, generators, and medical supplies like paracetamol, antibiotics, syringes, gloves, and bandages to support those affected by the disaster. The relief material was formally handed over to Yangon's Chief Minister U Soe Thein by India's Ambassador Abhay Thakur.
