President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu has acknowledged the Maldivian Defence Force (MNDF)'s unwavering commitment and resilience towards the nation. These remarks were made on the occasion of MNDF's anniversary, highlighting that the MNDF has been working diligently day and night with utmost sincerity, serving the nation.
Following the celebration of MNDF's 32nd anniversary, President Muizzu pledged to substantially enhance its services, emphasising that efforts are currently underway to ensure that the Maldivian economic zones are monitored by the Maldivian army itself.
Remarkably, as part of President Muizzu's developmental initiatives, MNDF air corps have been launched for the very first time in the Maldives. Therefore, the new air corps will handle all aerial military operations necessary to safeguard the Maldives airspace.
Moreover, alongside the air corps introduced, unmanned ariel vehicles (UAV'S) are currently being used. Simultaneously, the President emphasised that additional sea, road and air vessels would be assigned to the military operation.
