India Considers Naval Escorts For Ships In Strait Of Hormuz | West Asia War | News9

Описание: As tensions rise in West Asia, India is considering deploying warships to escort its commercial vessels through the strategic Strait of Hormuz.

According to a report by The New York Times, the move is being examined after Indian shipowners requested naval protection for vessels passing through the high-risk waterway amid the ongoing conflict involving Iran, United States and Israel.

A senior maritime official, P. C. Meena, said authorities are reviewing the possibility of deploying warships to ensure safe passage for Indian ships. Meanwhile, Sarbananda Sonowal has directed the Directorate General of Shipping to take measures to safeguard Indian seafarers and maritime assets.

Around 35% of India’s oil imports pass through the Strait of Hormuz, while nearly 55% of crude supplies come from West Asia, making the route critical for India’s energy security.
