Based on a request from the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), the Government of Japan provided tents, blankets and other materials for Afghan refugees in Pakistan. These materials were transported to Pakistan by six C-130H aircrafts of the Air Self-Defense Force.

The six aircrafts left the Komaki Air Base on October 6, arrived in Pakistan on October 9 (via Okinawa, Manila, U-Tapao, Calcutta, and Delhi), and returned to the Komaki Air Base on October 12.
