🇺🇸🇵🇦 The United States stands with Panama. And we’re backing our words with action. Following the October 9 earthquake, the United States rapidly mobilized rescue teams, humanitarian assistance, helicopters, emergency supplies, and private sector support to help affected communities. ✅ $10 million in humanitarian and logistical assistance. ✅ 20 U.S. search and rescue specialists deployed within 24 hours, conducting more than 370 structural assessments alongside SINAPROC. ✅ More than 60 tons of humanitarian aid and emergency supplies mobilized. ✅ Thousands of families supported with food, water, shelter, and essential supplies. From immediate disaster response to long-term recovery, we continue working shoulder to shoulder with our Panamanian partners to help families get back on their feet. Our partnership is defined by action. 🇺🇸🤝🇵🇦 See the full impact of U.S. assistance below. 👇
