India’s decision to send rescue teams to help with earthquake relief is timely, much needed and a sign of “true friendship”, said envoys from Turkey and Syria, countries hit hard by Monday’s earthquake that has claimed the lives of at least 4,500 people. India kickstarted the process of sending assistance to the quake-hit zone after a multi-agency meeting on Monday cleared the path for one of the largest humanitarian operations that New Delhi has carried out in the region in the recent past.
“The first 24-48 hours after a disaster of these proportions are the most critical, as there is hope that we can search and rescue the maximum number of those trapped in the rubble,” Turkish Ambassador Firat Sunel told The Hindu. “India’s offer of help at this critical time, sending nearly 100 experts and dog squads is very timely and very welcome,” he added.

Wrong thread
Not the wrong thread. India provided immediate assistance to Syria and Turkey. And it is missing from the list of countries in post image.
My computer is wonky. I saw this comment in completely different thread.
Lemmy’s been doing that sometimes since the update.
