According to the release, the attack took place earlier today and that the Embassy has been in close contact with the relevant authorities.
The development comes at a time when the safety of Indian seafarers remains a concern, with several deaths reported since the beginning of the US-Iran war a few months back. “The embassy continues to monitor the situation closely and remains in touch with the concerned authorities,” the release shared by ANI read.
