In a daring anti-piracy mission, the Indian Navy successfully rescued the hijacked MV Ruen using a General Atomics MQ-9B Sea Guardian drone. The 40-hour operation, 1400 kilometers off India's coast, captured 35 pirates and freed 17 hostages. INS Kolkata destroyed the vessel's navigation system, thwarting further mischief. The event underscores India's growing maritime prowess and proactive stance against piracy.
