India has sent emergency medical supplies to Kabul after a reported airstrike hit a hospital earlier this week. The aid, weighing around 2.5 tons, aims to help treat people injured in the attack and support strained healthcare services.
The supplies were dispatched by Ministry of External Affairs India as part of humanitarian assistance. Officials said the move shows India’s continued support for the Afghan people during difficult times. The medical shipment included essential medicines and equipment needed for emergency care.
The airstrike, reportedly carried out by Pakistan, caused damage to a hospital in Kabul and left several people injured. While details are still emerging, the incident has raised concerns about safety and stability in the region.
India has maintained a policy of providing humanitarian aid to Afghanistan, even after major political changes in the country. This latest step highlights its focus on people-to-people support, especially during crises.
Meanwhile, back in India, millions of people are celebrating Eid al-Fitr with prayers and gatherings across the country. Mosques saw large crowds early in the morning as people marked the end of the holy month of Ramadan.
In another development, New Delhi experienced unusual weather conditions. The city recorded its coldest March day in six years, with temperatures dropping to 21.7°C. Rainfall over the past few days also led to fog in the morning, which is rare for this time of year.
The cooler weather brought some relief from pollution, with air quality improving to a moderate level. However, heavy rains and strong winds also disrupted flight operations earlier in the week.
These developments reflect a mix of international humanitarian efforts and unusual domestic conditions, making it a significant day for both regional relations and daily life in India.
