An Indian-flagged oil tanker, Jag Laadki, has safely reached Mundra Port after navigating one of the world’s most volatile maritime zones. Carrying 80,800 metric tonnes of crude oil, the vessel departed from Fujairah Port just hours after a strike hit the oil terminal. Despite rising tensions across the Strait of Hormuz, the tanker continued its journey under tight security. Reports suggest an Indian naval escort ensured safe passage through the Gulf of Oman. This marks the third Indian vessel in three days to return safely from the conflict-hit region. The operation highlights India’s strategic preparedness under Operation Sankalp, aimed at securing vital shipping routes. As global tensions rise, India’s ability to protect its energy supply lines stands out as a key demonstration of silent but effective crisis management.
