Amid rising tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, India has secured a major diplomatic win as two LPG tankers, Shivalik and Nanda Devi, safely reached its shores. Reports indicate an Indian-flagged tanker was guided through the volatile corridor with support from the Iranian Navy, following close coordination and communication.
