Currently, the deployed Sangram warship is working efficiently to prevent the infiltration of illegal weapons and ammunition into Lebanese territory. The ship is also conducting maritime interdiction operations in Lebanese waters, surveillance of suspicious ships and aircraft, rescue operations on wrecked ships and providing necessary training to Lebanese naval personnel.

Since its deployment in Lebanon, the Navy has been carrying out its responsibilities of establishing world peace with utmost sincerity, dedication and efficiency. This proud participation of the Navy has indeed enhanced the image and reputation of Bangladesh in the international arena.
