According to official statements made to reporters, its planes have avoided flying over Pakistan by the standard operating procedure.

They alleged, “Since this is our usual operating policy, none of our aircraft fly over Pakistan. When flying towards Europe or West Asia, our aircraft travel a longer path by departing from the Gujarat side to avoid Pakistani airspace.”

A C130J-Hercules aircraft from the Indian Air Force headed to Syria on Tuesday night from Hindon Airport in Ghaziabad with medical supplies. A total of 6.5 tons of life-saving medications and other emergency medical supplies were on board the airplane.

Following the earthquake that shook the nation on Monday, India increased its assistance to Syria in the continuing situation. A C130J-Hercules plane belonging to the Indian Air force was seen being loaded with medical supplies earlier on Monday.
