Official Spokesperson’s statement on the attack on an Indian-flagged ship off the coast of Oman
The attack on an Indian-flagged ship off the coast of Oman yesterday is unacceptable and we deplore the fact that commercial shipping and civilian mariners continue to be targeted.
- All Indian crew on board are safe and we thank the Omani authorities for rescuing them.
- India reiterates that targeting commercial shipping and endangering innocent civilian crew members, or otherwise impeding freedom of navigation and commerce, should be avoided.
