Indian Ocean tsunami: Operation Flying Eagle remains SAF's largest rescue, relief mission to date

04:36 Min

Today marks two decades since a catastrophic tsunami changed millions of lives across the Indian Ocean. In its wake, more than 1,200 personnel from the Singapore Armed Forces toiled over two months as part of the international response. That rescue and relief mission remains the SAF's largest to date.
