Indian Navy Big Action LIVE : ईरान जहाज को बंधक बनाते ही टूट पड़ी भारतीय सेना! | Indian Navy Rescue

The Indian Navy has rescued the fishing vessel Ajini from Somali pirates and safely freed its 20 Iranian crew members, India's Zee News reports.

The Hindi-language broadcast describes a hostage rescue at sea, identifying those aboard as a fishing crew. Its accompanying description says the vessel was recovered from the pirates' control, but gives no account of how naval personnel secured its release or what happened to the captors.

The operation falls within a longstanding role for India's navy, which regularly conducts anti-piracy missions and operates around the Horn of Africa and the Persian Gulf. Those deployments place Indian naval forces along maritime routes far beyond the country's own coastline.

The rescue broadcast drew about 172,000 views since yesterday, making it one of India's most-watched new news videos during that period.
