The Pakistan Army relief operation has begun in Tero, a far-flung village in Phander tehsil of Gilgit-Baltistan. The mission was launched on the special directives of Chief of Army Staff, Field Marshal General Syed Asim Munir.
On Sunday, officials confirmed that a field hospital was established to address the medical needs of the local population. A specialist medical team has also reached the village. The team consists of a paediatrician, a gynaecologist, a medical specialist, and a general duty officer.
The Pakistan Army relief operation became necessary after heavy floods destroyed road access, leaving the residents cut off from medical care. People faced serious health challenges as no facilities were available in the village.
Doctors began examining patients and provided free medicines to the community. The team announced that they would remain in the area to offer 24-hour medical services.
As part of the ongoing Pakistan Army relief operation, four patients in critical condition were evacuated by helicopter. They were shifted to hospitals for urgent treatment.
The troops also delivered food and other essentials to the flood-hit families. Items distributed included flour, rice, lentils, clean drinking water, and daily-use necessities.
Military officials said that the public welfare effort will continue until the complete rehabilitation of the affected villagers. The Pakistan Army relief operation reflects the commitment of the forces to stand with citizens during times of crisis.
