In the early hours of\u00a021 Mar 25, the Indian Navy successfully carried out a critical Medical Evacuation (MEDEVAC) operation from\u00a0MV\u00a0Heilan Star<\/em>, a Panama-flagged bulk carrier, located about 230 nautical miles West of Goa.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

On the night of\u00a020\/21 Mar 25, the Indian Coast Guard’s Maritime Rescue Coordination Centre(MRCC) at Mumbai informed the Indian Navy of four crew members of MV\u00a0Heilan Star<\/em>\u00a0having sustained severe burn injuries and requiring immediate advanced medical care.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Responding swiftly, the Navy diverted two ships, INS\u00a0Vikrant<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Deepak<\/em>, from their ongoing deployment to render aid.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

At first light on 21 Mar 25, a Seaking helicopter from\u00a0Vikrant<\/em>\u00a0carried out a challenging winching operation, to evacuate three injured crew – two Chinese and one Indonesian nationals, from MV\u00a0Heilan Star<\/em>. The fourth crew had, sadly, already succumbed to injuries. The rescued crew were immediately flown to INS\u00a0Hansa<\/em>, Goa, from where they transferred to a civil hospital for further medical care.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

This operation underscores the Indian Navy’s and the Indian Coast Guard\u2019s unwavering commitment to life-saving efforts and swift response to humanitarian assistance, despite challenging circumstances, even beyond national maritime boundaries.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
