Porbandar: In a dramatic and challenging rescue operation, the Indian Coast Guard (ICG) successfully evacuated a critically ill Indian national from the Motor Tanker Zeal, registered in the Gabon Republic, approximately 20 kilometers off the Mangrol coast in Gujarat.
The patient, suffering from a very low pulse and lower body numbness, required immediate medical attention. Responding swiftly, the ICG Air Enclave in Porbandar dispatched an Advanced Light Helicopter (ALH) to the scene despite facing high-intensity winds, heavy rainfall, and generally inclement weather conditions.
Demonstrating precision and skill, the helicopter crew positioned the aircraft over the motor tanker and deployed a rescue basket to safely evacuate the patient. The individual was then transported to Porbandar for further medical care.
