Pakistan Navy ship collides with Indian warship in Arabian Sea; New Delhi summons Islamabad envoy
The Ministry of External Affairs in a statement said the incident took place in international waters and did not cause any major damage.
On September 15, a collision occurred between a Pakistani Navy vessel and an Indian Navy warship in the North Arabian Sea. The Indian government has strongly protested this incident, calling it an "unacceptable and unprofessional" act by Pakistani naval units. The Ministry of External Affairs in India stated that the collision happened in international waters and did not result in significant damage.
However, India cited the 1991 agreement between the two nations, which requires advance notice for military exercises, maneuvers, and troop movements, as the Pakistani ship's actions directly violated this agreement. The Pakistani Charge d'Affaires in New Delhi was instructed to communicate to relevant authorities the importance of adhering to these agreements to prevent future incidents.
India has also ordered its Charge d'Affaires in Islamabad to lodge a similar protest with Pakistan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
