India has initiated Operation Amistad to aid Venezuela after two powerful earthquakes caused significant destruction and casualties. This humanitarian mission reflects India's solidarity with Venezuelans, involving the deployment of Indian Air Force C-17 aircraft carrying a medical team and over 35 tonnes of relief supplies, including BHISHM Cubes for emergency healthcare. Following the earthquakes, which resulted in at least 235 deaths and over 4,300 injuries, Indian Prime Minister Modi expressed condolences and affirmed India's readiness to assist, a sentiment echoed by Venezuela's acting president, Delcy Rodríguez.
