India Raises Alarm Over Attacks on Ships in Hormuz

India has summoned the Iranian ambassador to New Delhi to express its deep concern over the recent attacks on two Indian-flagged ships attempting to navigate the Strait of Hormuz on Saturday. One of these vessels has been identified as the Sanmar Herald.
