Killed in America’s War: The Indian Sailors Nobody Apologised For

Three Indian mariners are dead, killed by US Navy strikes on a commercial tanker in the Gulf of Oman. Host Anirban Chowdhury talks to Abhijit Singh, a retired naval officer and former head of the maritime policy initiative at ORF, to break down what we know and what remains contested about the MT Settebello incident. Was it a legitimate blockade enforcement or an unprovoked attack on a stationary vessel? And does the timing make it worse? A US-Iran truce and deal was reportedly already in the works when the precision strikes hit. Abhijit examines India's structural vulnerability in global shipping, the limits of diplomatic protests, and what New Delhi must demand now before this becomes just another forgotten episode. Listen in.
