(13 Sep 2017) Four Hercules planes carrying 34 tonnes of aid for Rohingya refugees have departed for Bangladesh from an air force base in the Indonesian capital.
Indonesia's President Joko Widodo has called for an immediate end to violence in Myanmar's Rakhine state and promised significant humanitarian aid.
He and other officials including his foreign minister and military chief inspected the relief operation before its departure from Halim Air Base.
Presidential spokesman Johan Budi said the planes are carrying rice, instant meals, family kits, tents, water tanks and blankets.
He said it's the first batch of aid from Indonesia following discussions with Myanmar and Bangladesh.
