An Indian national has died from medical complications aboard the vessel MT Celestial while it was docked at Duqm Port in Oman, the Indian embassy in Muscat has said according to Reuters.
“Necessary arrangements are being made for the early repatriation of the mortal remains to India,” the embassy said in a post on social media.
The death comes days after three Indian seafarers were killed in a US strike on a tanker off Oman, triggering criticism from the public and opposition parties.
