NEW DELHI (AP) — India's naval forces rescued an Iranian-flagged fishing vessel hijacked by Somali pirates and freed its 19-member Pakistani crew off the east coast of Somalia, a navy statement said Tuesday.

The rescue operation was the third this week involving Somali pirates and came a day after India's forces freed another Iranian fishing vessel named Iman and its 17 crew members from Somali pirates in the same waters. On Saturday, the Seychelles’ defense forces and coast guard rescued six Sri Lankan fishermen whose vessel had been hijacked by Somali pirates.

The Indian navy’s latest operation rescued the Iranian vessel Al Naeemi from the pirates late Monday. The ship intercepted the vessel and forced the pirates to release the crew and boat, which 11 Somali pirates had boarded, the statement said.

The navy did not immediately say what happened to the pirates responsible for the hijacking. But it posted images showing 10 pirates with their hands tied behind them and armed Indian naval troops guarding them. Another image showed some armed pirates on the vessel.

The piracy occurred in international waters about 850 nautical miles (1,570 kilometers) west of the Indian coastal city of Kochi.

Amid disruptions in global shipping due to attacks by Yemen-based Houthi rebels in the Red Sea since November, the Indian navy has ramped up its deployment by sending three guided missile destroyers and reconnaissance aircraft to the vast Indian Ocean.

They have carried out several anti-piracy missions in addition to helping at least four merchant vessels that were attacked in the high waters amid Israel’s war with Hamas.

[ad_1] India voiced a strong objection to the Sri Lankan Navy’s use of force during the apprehension of 13 Indian fishermen near Delft Island. In response to the incident, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) summoned Sri Lanka’s Acting High Commissioner to deliver a formal protest and demand accountability. The incident, which occurred early Tuesday morning, resulted in injuries to five fishermen aboard the Indian fishing vessel. Two of them sustained serious injuries and are currently receiving medical care at Jaffna Teaching Hospital, while three others were treated for minor wounds. Indian consulate officials in Jaffna visited the injured fishermen to ensure their well-being and extend necessary assistance to their families. In an official statement, the MEA criticized the Sri Lankan Navy’s actions, calling them “unacceptable” and urging both nations to uphold agreements on the treatment of fishermen. “The use of force in such situations cannot be justified under any circumstances. Both governments must adhere strictly to existing understandings regarding this matter,” the statement said. The incident highlights a recurring issue in the Palk Strait, where Indian fishermen and the Sri Lankan Navy frequently clash over disputed maritime boundaries and fishing rights. Arrests, detentions, and confrontations have become a source of tension, despite ongoing diplomatic discussions to resolve the disputes. This latest episode follows the recent repatriation of 41 Indian fishermen who were detained by the Sri Lankan Navy. Among them were 35 fishermen from Tamil Nadu’s Ramanathapuram district, arrested last September near Katchatheevu for allegedly crossing into Sri Lankan waters. Their release was secured after intervention by the Indian central and state governments.
