Three Indian-flagged tankers carrying more than 860,000 metric tonnes of oil and 94 Indian crew members have safely transited the Strait of Hormuz and are en route to India, Reuters reports citing shipping minister Sarbananda Sonowal.
Sonowal has posted on X that the Desh Vaibhav, Desh Vibhor and Sanmar Herald have all completed the transit.
Prior to the transit of the three vessels, 13 Indian flagged cargoes were stranded in the Strait of Hormuz.
“Our ministry is actively coordinating with all relevant agencies to guarantee the absolute safety of Bharat’s seafarers and energy lifelines,” Sonowal says.
