A tragic maritime incident has unfolded near the Strait of Hormuz after an Indian cargo vessel carrying 18 crew members caught fire and capsized during escalating regional tensions. One Indian sailor from Gujarat was killed while several others were injured after the dhow reportedly came under fire amid alleged crossfire linked to fresh US-Iran naval clashes in the region. The vessel, travelling from Dubai to Yemen, burst into flames before overturning in one of the world’s most sensitive shipping corridors. Survivors were rescued by another passing ship, while injured crew members are now being treated in Dubai.
