24 Indian sailors rescued from ship hit by U.S. missile
Marivex sanctioned by the U.S. last December, had earlier carried Iranian oil to India; U.S. Central Command says the tanker violated the ongoing blockade by attempting to sail to an Iranian port; sailors likely to reach India in two days
A group of 24 Indian mariners has been successfully rescued following an incident in which their vessel was struck by a United States missile. The ship, identified as the Marivex, had previously been placed under American sanctions for its role in transporting Iranian oil to India. According to U.S. Central Command, the tanker was targeted because it breached an established blockade by trying to reach an Iranian port. The crew members are currently in the process of being repatriated and are expected to arrive back in India within the next 48 hours.
The incident highlights the escalating geopolitical tensions and the enforcement of maritime sanctions involving international shipping routes.
