Specialist doctors, nurses, and specialized equipment for treating burn patients are being sent from India to Dhaka to help those injured in the warplane crash at Milestone School and College in Uttara, Dhaka, who are currently undergoing treatment, according to BBC Bangla.

A senior source in the Indian Ministry of External Affairs in Delhi told the BBC today, "We are expecting two specialist doctors - who have long experience working in burn units - to arrive in Dhaka today (Tuesday) along with a small team of nurses."
He added, "Medical equipment is also being sent. More doctors will also go as needed."


On Monday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi posted on his X his condolences over the plane crash and said that "India stands by Bangladesh in this crisis and is ready to provide all kinds of support and assistance."

Meanwhile, interim regime Chief Advisor Md Yunus had to take down his Facebook post asking for donation from public to deal with aircraft crash following huge backlash in social media.

Students are still protesting in front of Dhaka’s Baitul Mukarram demanding the resignation of the Education Adviser. Students also blocked highways in Chittagong and Barishal demanding the resignation of Education Advisor.
