In a daring sea operation, Indian Navy rescued the hijacked merchant vessel Ruen and its 17 crew members from 35 Somali pirates. The pirates, using MV Ruen as a base for attacks, even fired at an Indian naval drone. They're now being brought to India for prosecution under the Maritime Anti-Piracy Act. Typically, captured pirates are disarmed and set adrift to prevent further threats. This successful mission showcases India's commitment to maritime security and the effectiveness of its naval operations.
