Indian Naval Ship (INS) Teg has rescued nine sailors, including eight Indians and one Sri Lankan, the Indian Navy said on Wednesday (July 17, 2024). 

The eight Indians have reached ashore: one Indian has, however, died, and the person's body has been retrieved, India's Minister of State for External Affairs Kirti Vardhan Singh said on Thursday (July 18, 2024).

The operation continues as the Navy and Omani authorities work to locate the remaining missing crew members.

On July 15, 2024, the MV capsized about 25 nautical miles southeast of Ras Madrakah, Oman, and search and rescue efforts in coordination with Oman authorities are in progress since then.
