After a devastating earthquake ravaged Myanmar recently, India initiated its relief and rescue efforts in the country under the banner 'Operation Brahma'.
About Operation Brahma:
It is India's humanitarian mission launched in response to the devastating 7.7-magnitude earthquake that struck Myanmar on March 28, 2025.
The massive earthquake that devastated Myanmar and neighbouring Thailand killed over 1,600 people and caused widespread destruction.
The large-scale humanitarian mission includes rescue teams, medical aid, and relief supplies.
The National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) deployed an 80-member team equipped with concrete cutters, drill machines, plasma cutters, and other rescue tools.
The Indian Army has mobilised a specialised medical task force to provide urgent humanitarian assistance.
The Indian Army dispatched a specialized 118-member medical team from the elite Shatrujeet Brigade Medical Responders.
As part of the mission, the Indian Army will set up a 60-bed Medical Treatment Centre to provide immediate care to those injured in the disaster.
The facility will be equipped to handle trauma cases, emergency surgeries, and essential medical services to support Myanmar’s strained healthcare system.
Two Indian naval ships, INS Satpura and INS Savitri, were dispatched carrying 40 tonnes of humanitarian aid to the port of Yangon.
