The tanker, MT Honour 25, was seized by Somali pirates on April 21, with 19 crew members on board, including 10 Pakistanis. The deceased sailors, identified as Rafiullah Khan, Syed Kashif Umer, and Mahmood Ahmed Ansari, were taken to Ethiopia's capital, Addis Ababa, and the next steps for their transfer to Karachi are currently being reviewed by Ethiopian Airlines.
