India is verifying how the Indian-flagged wooden cargo vessel MVS Haji Ali was attacked in the Gulf of Oman, where it caught fire and later sank.
The Shipping Ministry said the ship was hit on Wednesday while sailing from Somalia to Sharjah in the United Arab Emirates.
More than a dozen crew members were rescued by the Omani Coast Guard after the vessel went down.
India's Ministry of External Affairs condemned the attack as "unacceptable," signaling the incident could draw wider diplomatic and maritime security scrutiny.
With GPS jamming and escalating attacks, how can ships safely navigate the Gulf of Oman, and who is truly behind the sinking of the MVS Haji Ali?
Could Iran’s growing control over the Strait of Hormuz permanently disrupt global trade, or will international efforts restore safe passage for commercial vessels?
