Indian foreign ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal has called for attacks on ships to cease, after three Indians were killed in a US attack on an oil tanker in the Gulf, Al Jazeera reports.
Jaiswal tells reporters that another ship, M/T Jalveer, was attacked by the US Navy.
“These attacks must cease, and we reiterate our call for dialogue and diplomacy to ensure an early return to peace and stability in the region,” Jaiswal stresses.
He adds that the ongoing attacks on “shipping in the region are deeply worrisome and are a direct consequence of the ongoing conflict there”.
