Operating in coordination with Sri Lankan authorities, the helicopter focused on areas where rising water levels have cut off ground access, ensuring that life-saving aid reached vulnerable communities.

PNS SAIF, currently on an overseas deployment to Sri Lanka, will continue relief operations in the coming days to support the local population as the country grapples with the aftermath of the powerful cyclone.
