Amateur radio operators in Bangladesh have played a crucial role in assisting flood victims in areas like Feni, Sona Gazi, and Comilla. During the recent floods in Feni, these operators became lifelines when traditional communication networks failed. They coordinated rescue and relief efforts, relaying critical information between the Army, local authorities, and rescue teams. Their efforts included setting up base stations and control rooms to facilitate communication, which was vital for organizing over 375 rescue operations in remote areas. This community-driven initiative showcased the dedication and resourcefulness of amateur radio operators in times of crisis.
