India Monitors Dozens of National Ships in Gulf as Tensions Mount

Currently, several dozen Indian merchant ships, carrying crude oil, liquefied natural gas, and other essential goods, are navigating strategic waterways near the Strait of Hormuz. The Ministry of Ports and Shipping has urged shipping companies to follow safety protocols and maintain regular updates on vessel movements.

Officials emphasized that India is taking all precautionary measures to safeguard its maritime assets while continuing to support uninterrupted trade in the region.
