A British military ship has docked near Male'.
The ship is now near the northwest coast of Male'. The RFA Lyme Bay is one of the largest vessels in the British military. The ship is 250 meters long.
According to a post on Lyme Bay's official X account, the ship arrived in Male' this morning.
During port visits, vessels are refuelled and loaded with essential cargo while crew members could also be rotated.
Before arriving in the Maldives, the ship was in Singapore for maintenance purposes.
The Maldives National Defence Force (MNDF) said the ship was docked for logistics purposes. It is unknown when the ship is expected to depart.
While a British military ship docked in Male' today, a direct flight from the US military base in Diego Garcia landed at Velana International Airport (VIA) yesterday.
The flight was operated by Beond, the world's first premium leisure airline, a joint venture between Maldives' Simdi Group and UAE's Arabesque.
