As part of its ongoing Long Range Op Deployment, INS Kadmatt arrived in Manila, Philippines on Tuesday, furthering maritime cooperation between India and the Philippines.
During the port call, a series of engagements, including professional interactions, subject matter expert exchanges, and cross-deck visits, took place to enhance collaboration between the naval personnel of both nations. 

Following its departure from Manila, INS Kadmatt participated in a maritime partnership exercise in the South China Sea alongside BRP Ramon Alcaraz, an offshore patrol vessel of the Philippine Navy.
