India dispatched 20 tonnes of humanitarian aid to Jamaica arriving on November 6, 2025, aboard an Indian Air Force C-17 aircraft to support recovery following the devastation caused by Hurricane Melissa. The relief shipment included a special Bharat Health Initiative for Sahyog, Hita, and Maitri (BHISHM) medical trauma unit, generators, tents, bedding, kitchen kits, solar lanterns, hygiene kits, and other essential supplies. A four-member Indian Air Force medical team will remain for several days to train Jamaican medical personnel in using the BHISHM trauma unit effectively. Jamaica’s Foreign Minister Kamina Johnson Smith and other officials expressed deep gratitude, highlighting strong India-Jamaica ties and recalling India’s historic humanitarian efforts such as Vaccine Maitri. This aid demonstrates India’s solidarity with its Global South partners and commitment to humanitarian cooperation, reinforcing its role as an active global disaster response contributor. Jamaica benefited from this timely and comprehensive support for post-hurricane recovery.
