Indian-flagged crude oil tanker Desh Garima, which has 31 Indian seafarers onboard, safely crossed the Strait of Hormuz on Saturday, as per a government press release. This happened on the same day Iran attacked two other Indian vessels. Notably, Iran had closed the strait again on Saturday, a day after opening it, citing "violations" by the US.
