Operation PNG Assist II
An Australian Defence Force C-130 arrived at Papua New Guinea carrying water containers, tarpaulins and water purification tablets to be distributed in the worst areas hit by severe swells recently.
The plane flew to Kavieng (New Ireland province) and Lorengau (Manus province) where the supplies were passed on to PNG officials and Non-Government Organisations for distribution.
