Iran releases crew, including 16 Indians, of seized ship
Friday, 3 May 2024 () Iran announced on Friday that it has freed the crew members, which includes 16 Indian nationals, of the Portuguese-flagged vessel that was captured during the military conflict with Israel. The Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian informed his Estonian counterpart that a ship, which had turned off its radar in Iran's territorial waters, was detained according to legal procedures.
Iran's Foreign Minister, Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, disclosed that the West urged Iran to temper its response before the strikes on Israeli-held territories. Despite Western pressure, Iran remained resolute, launching Operation True Promise in retaliation for Israel's attack on Iran's embassy in Damascus. Amir-Abdollahian emphasized Iran's independent decision-making and readiness for dialogue, cautioning against Israeli hardliners' preference for perpetual conflict.
