EXPLOSION On Singapore-Flagged Ship Near Kerala | 18 of 22 crew ABANDON Burning Ship | Rescue Ops On

A massive explosion rocked the Singapore-flagged container ship MV Wan Hai 503 off Kerala’s coast on Monday.

The underdeck blast triggered thick smoke and fire, prompting 18 of the 22 crew to abandon ship.

The Indian Navy swiftly diverted INS Surat for rescue, while the Coast Guard joined evacuation efforts.

The vessel, en route from Colombo to Mumbai, remains adrift and burning.

The Navy is deploying a Dornier aircraft to assess the situation.

The incident follows a recent cargo ship sinking nearby.
