Indian Sailor Killed in Black Sea Attack on MV OMORFI, Other Crew Safe
India condemned attacks on commercial shipping after an Indian national was killed when the MV OMORFI was attacked in the Black Sea on July 18, with two other Indian crew members reported safe, and urged adherence to international obligations to safeguard maritime navigation. The drive follows the earlier deadly strike on the MV Golden Leo near Odesa that killed four Indians, as New Delhi also pressed Russia for accountability and called for protection of global trade routes.
