NEW DELHI: All three missing Indian seafarers have died after a US military strike on a tanker in the Gulf of Oman, Indian Shipping Minister Sarbananda Sonoma said on Thursday.
The US said its military carried out a “precision” strike on the vessel that failed to follow its instructions and was carrying oil from Iran.
Indian sources told Reuters that New Delhi had summoned the US deputy chief of mission after lodging a “strong protest” on the strike.
