UK-based maritime risk management group Vanguard said the vessel was affected by an explosion believed to have been caused by a drone or missile strike.“The attack on an Indian-flagged ship off the coast of Oman [on Wednesday] is unacceptable and we deplore the fact that commercial shipping and civilian mariners continue to be targeted,” the statement said.“India reiterates that targeting commercial shipping and endangering innocent civilian crew members, or otherwise impeding freedom of navigation and commerce, should be avoided,” it added.Jaiswal said all Indian crew members on board the vessel were safe and thanked Omani authorities for rescuing them.The vessel, which was carrying livestock and sailing from Somalia to the United Arab Emirates (UAE), was attacked early on Wednesday. The attack triggered a fire that led to the sinking of the vessel. All 14 crew members were rescued by Oman’s Coast Guard and taken to Diba port.At least two other Indian-flagged ships have been attacked since the war between the US and Iran began on February 28.
