How Indian Navy rescued oil tanker from Houthi missile attack

The vessel, with 30 crew members aboard, including 22 Indians, was rescued by the Navy's destroyer INS Kochi. All crew members are safe, officials confirmed.

"A mission deployed Indian Naval destroyer INS Kochi responded to a maritime security incident involving the attack on Panama-flagged crude oil tanker MV Andromeda Star on April 26," the Indian Navy said.

According to the US Central Command, Iranian-backed Houthi militants launched three anti-ship ballistic missiles from Yemen into the Red Sea, targeting the merchant vessel Maisha and MV Andromeda Star.
