Vehicle with IED detonates in Kabul, no casualties so far

Speaking during the weekly press briefing, Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said India opposes attacks on merchant shipping "from any quarters" and confirmed that several Indian nationals have been affected in recent incidents.

"There have been maritime incidents involving Indian crew on foreign-flagged vessels. Of these vessels, there were 78 Indian seafarers. Of these, 70 are unhurt and escaped. Four sustained injuries over the last few days, but are stable. Unfortunately, there have been three casualties, and one seafarer is missing," he said.

A drone strike on a Kuwaiti residential building has caused casualties and "material damage," following revelations that a previous Iranian attack on US forces was more severe than disclosed. While "robust air defences" are in place, dozens of personnel suffered "brain trauma" and other "urgent" battle injuries.

The Spokesperson of the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), Randhir Jasiwal, on Wednesday confirmed that the two Indian nationals have lost their lives and one still remains missing amid the ongoing West Asian conflict.

Saar said that due to Iran's strikes, which were in blatant flagration of international law, 13 civilians had died in Israel.
