Red Sea Attacks: India saves ship with 9 Indians in Gulf of Aden amid Houthi attacks | Oneindia

The Red Sea's geopolitical tensions intensified as the Marshall Island-flagged MV Genco Picardy faced a drone attack in the Gulf of Aden, a crucial maritime corridor linking the Red Sea to the Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean.

Responding swiftly to the incident, the Indian Navy deployed its warship, INS Visakhapatnam, in the region to aid the vessel targeted amid the ongoing attacks by Houthi rebels on the shipping route.

The Indian Navy's rapid response followed a distress call, leading to the interception of the affected ship to provide immediate assistance.
