Islamabad: The Pakistan Air Force (PAF) has undertaken large- scale relief operations for the victims of earthquake.
C-130 aircraft of Pakistan Air Force carried out aerial delivery of the relief goods to the victims of earthquake in Balakot area on Monday.
The relief goods included tents, blankets, sleeping bags and foods stuff.
The aerial delivery was carried out in the areas where access through ground has been hampered due to large- scale damage of the roads.
Another C-130 was used in the role of Air Ambulance whereby it carried 60 seriously injured persons from Islamabad to Gujranwala airfield. The injured were brought from Azad Kashmir and they were required to be immediately shifted to Gujranwala Combined Military Hospital (CMH). Pakistan Air Force Boeing 707 and C-130 aircraft flew number of sorties between Karachi - Islamabad and Karachi - Kamra to airlift relief goods donated by citizens of Karachi.
