New Delhi, 1/3: Prime Minister Narendra Modi has taken a big step to rescue hundreds of Indians trapped in the warring Ukraine. According to the news received from the sources, he has now entrusted the Air Force with the responsibility of evacuating the Indians trapped in Ukraine under Operation Ganga. The C-17 aircraft is the largest aircraft with the Air Force. This will help to evacuate more Indians from Ukraine in less time. Russia’s attack on Ukraine continues for the sixth day and many Indians trapped there are living in the basement, who now do not even have food and drink.
ANI has told on the basis of the news received from the sources that PM Modi has ordered the Indian Army for this. So far, about one thousand Indians trapped in Ukraine have been brought through Poland, Hungary, Romania, but still thousands of Indians are trapped there. There are more than 20 thousand Indians in Ukraine. According to sources, many C-17 aircraft of the Indian Air Force can start flying under Operation Ganga today.
C-17 Globemaster is a master in all kinds of work
The C-17 Globemaster III of the Indian Air Force is a military and humanitarian aid aircraft. This 4-engine aircraft is capable of doing many things. It can deliver the Indian Army anywhere in any corner of the world, in any circumstance, day or night, with a huge amount of arms and ammunition. Apart from this, it can take the Indian Army to the smallest airport. It can also be used for humanitarian aid. The C17 can fly long distances. That is why it has been selected to bring Indians trapped in Ukraine. After the fall of the Afghan government, only the C-17 Globemaster was sent to bring Indians from there last year. It can lift a load of 72.6 tonnes simultaneously.
