India's Foreign Ministry has called for restoring free and safe navigation, condemning the attack on a commercial ship off Yemen. The ship, MSV Faize Noore Oliya, capsized and sank, leaving all 14 crew members, including 13 Indians, rescued by the Yemeni Coast Guard. India, a major importer of oil and petroleum from the Gulf region, is directly connected to the area via the Arabian Sea.
