India has stepped up its humanitarian assistance to earthquake-hit Venezuela under Operation Amistad, dispatching additional relief consignments and medical teams to support ongoing rescue and rehabilitation efforts. The aid includes emergency medicines, surgical equipment, tents, food supplies, and water purification units aimed at helping thousands of displaced families.
Indian doctors and paramedics have been deployed to overwhelmed hospitals in Caracas and other affected regions, providing critical care to earthquake survivors. Mobile medical units are also operating in temporary shelters, ensuring access to healthcare for vulnerable communities.
Operation Amistad, launched immediately after the twin earthquakes, has already delivered multiple consignments of humanitarian aid. The latest tranche underscores India’s commitment to stand by Venezuela during its crisis, with officials emphasizing that relief efforts will continue until stability is restored.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised the dedication of Indian medical teams serving in Venezuela, calling their work a reflection of India’s humanitarian values. The initiative has been welcomed by Venezuelan authorities, who highlighted the importance of international solidarity in rebuilding affected regions.
India’s assistance under Operation Amistad not only strengthens bilateral ties but also demonstrates its role as a responsible global partner in disaster relief and humanitarian outreach.
