"All 22 of our citizens on board are safe," said MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal, on Indian nationals aboard two vessels hijacked by Somali pirates off Yemen and Somalia.

The Eritrea-flagged tanker MT Sibu 1, with 16 Indians among its crew, was hijacked on August 20 in the Gulf of Aden, off Yemen. The Cameroon-flagged M/V Lutuf, carrying six Indians, was seized on August 17 off Somalia's Puntland coast. The government says it is in touch with authorities to ensure the crew's safety, amid rising piracy concerns in the region.
