The first emergency airlift drone service in Pakistan was launched by the Punjab government to help those stranded during floods and other natural catastrophes.
A person weighing up to 200 kg can be safely carried by the recently purchased airlift drone and taken to a secure place, according to the Punjab Home Department.
In disaster-affected areas, this cutting-edge technology seeks to expedite and improve rescue efforts.
The Home Secretary has ordered the drone to be sent to Multan right away, where floodwaters have trapped a number of people.
Test flights in Lahore were successful.
The drone was successfully tested in Lahore by Civil Defense before being dispatched to South Punjab. The equipment is completely functional and prepared for deployment in an emergency, according to officials.
