The Ministry of External Affairs on Tuesday (October 6, 2026) condemned the targeting of commercial shipping, seafarers, and civilian infrastructure following two separate attacks in the Black Sea and off Oman that left two foreign seafarers dead and several Indian crew members injured.

Eleven Indian crew members were injured on Tuesday (October 6, 2026) after a Panama-flagged commercial vessel MT On Peace was hit by a projectile while transiting the Strait of Hormuz. Thanking the Omani authorities for their support, MEA said that the injured crew have since been evacuated and are receiving medical treatment in Oman’s Khasab.
