New Delhi: Somali pirates also attacked the Indian Navy from the hijacked merchant ship MV Rouen and the Navy gave a strong response to them. Giving this information, Navy spokesperson Commander Madhwal said that after this our warship took steps for 'self-defense' as per international law and we were successful in allaying the fear of the pirates by taking minimum action against them. In this way we have made shipping safe from threats.
He further said that earlier he had ordered the pirates to surrender but when they did not surrender, further action had to be taken. After this they were defeated and the passengers and crew held hostage in the ship were also released.
Actually, these pirates had hijacked this MV on 14 December 2023. Rouen Constipation said.
Houthi terrorists are now spreading terror in the Arabian Sea in the west but the Indian Navy is responding to them and providing security to commercial ships passing through the waterways there. In fact, the Indian Navy is now playing the role of a sentinel in the Arabian Sea.
