DGS withdraws restriction on the movement of Indian ships in the Strait of Hormuz

The Directorate General of Shipping (DGS) in India has lifted restrictions on the movement of Indian ships and the deployment of Indian seafarers in the Gulf region, including the Strait of Hormuz, following a period of heightened security concerns. This decision comes after the U.S. conducted military strikes against Iran, prompting retaliatory actions by Iran targeting Kuwait and Bahrain. Earlier, the DGS had imposed restrictions due to several security incidents involving Indian seafarers, including the death of three Indian crew members during a U.S. attack on a vessel near Oman. The DGS emphasized maintaining caution and adhering to security protocols and advisories from relevant authorities.
