All 28 Indian crew members on board a Mozambique-flagged ship have been safely rescued after coming under attack near Iran’s territorial waters, Al Jazeera reports.
The tanker DISHA transmitted a distress signal after being targeted by “hostile forces” as it entered Iranian waters.
“Upon the occurrence of the incident, the ship immediately transmitted a distress call to the Iranian coastguard,” Mohammad Fathali, Iran’s ambassador to India, told the ANI news agency.
