Summary
A US strike near the Gulf of Oman killed three Indian sailors aboard the oil tanker MT Settebello, sparking national mourning and diplomatic tension. The US claims the vessel carried Iranian oil and ignored warnings, but the ship’s managers deny any Iranian ties and say they received no prior notice. Twenty-one others were rescued. Families across India are devastated, grappling with grief and unanswered questions — one sailor’s wife recalls his final promise to return home, just weeks before their 15th anniversary. India has formally protested the attack, demanding an end to strikes on commercial shipping, while families urgently seek repatriation of their loved ones’ remains and support as sole providers for their households.
