External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar confirmed the operation via a tweet, emphasizing India’s commitment to regional cooperation and humanitarian assistance. “Indian Navy ships INS Satpura & INS Savitri are carrying 40 tonnes of humanitarian aid and headed for the port of Yangon,” he posted.
The aid package includes essential supplies such as food, medicines, and relief materials, aimed at assisting communities affected by recent challenges in Myanmar.
