India Denies Russia's Weapons Claim Over Fatal Ship Attack

India has rejected Russia's assertion that a cargo ship attacked in the Black Sea was carrying weapons. The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said the vessel, MV Golden Leo, was carrying grain, not arms. The attack killed four Indian seafarers. India raised its concerns directly with Russia's foreign minister during a recent meeting, emphasizing that attacks on commercial shipping and seafarers are unacceptable under any circumstances. The MEA did not provide further details about the incident or the meeting. The contradiction between India's account and Russia's claim highlights ongoing tensions over the safety of merchant vessels in the region. No other countries have commented on the cargo dispute. The MV Golden Leo was reportedly hit in an attack that resulted in the deaths of the four Indian crew members. India has called for a full investigation into the incident. The ministry reiterated its commitment to protecting the lives of Indian seafarers and ensuring the safety of international shipping lanes.
