The strike occurred in the Gulf of Oman, where US forces intercepted the vessel on allegations of breaching a naval blockade surrounding Iranian ports. While 21 crew members survived the engagement, the loss of three Indian nationals has sparked a diplomatic rift. Rahul Gandhi joined his sister in condemning the operation, fueling pressure on the administration to seek accountability.
India’s Ministry of External Affairs has already registered a formal protest with the US Charge d’Affaires regarding the incident. The Prime Minister, currently in Évian-les-Bains for his seventh consecutive G7 appearance, faces mounting expectations to shift the focus from traditional partnership agendas to the immediate security of Indian citizens abroad.
