In a Facebook post, the RSAF said a RESCUE10 Medium Lift Helicopter was activated and flew to a bulk carrier, a type of merchant ship.
There, the helicopter crew evacuated a crewman with “urgent medical needs”.
The post’s video showed the white and red helicopter landing back on Singapore soil.
Once they had touched down, the crew carried the victim out on a stretcher before passing them on to medical staff.

As the ambulance left, the RESCUE10 helicopter took off once more.

They also wished a quick and full recovery for the affected ship crewman.
