Middle East crisis: Government lodges protest with Iran as sailor dies in fresh attacks

India summoned Iran’s deputy chief of mission to protest recent attacks on commercial ships. One Indian seafarer tragically lost his life and two others were critically injured. These attacks on vessels like MT Al Bahiyah and MT Mombasa have intensified recently. India strongly condemned the violence and urged an immediate cessation of hostilities. The government seeks the restoration of free and safe navigation through international waterways.
