In a remarkable display of international solidarity, India has dispatched a substantial aid package to Papua New Guinea following catastrophic landslides that have claimed approximately 2,000 lives. Triggered by relentless heavy rainfall, the landslides devastated entire communities, leaving thousands homeless. India’s swift response, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, includes medical teams, rescue personnel, and essential supplies, transported by the Indian Navy’s INS Airavat. This aid mission highlights the critical role of global cooperation in addressing humanitarian crises and supporting recovery efforts in times of dire need.
