An Indian warship is escorting the oil tanker Jag Laadki out of the Gulf of Oman to India's west coast after it sailed from the Fujairah port in the United Arab Emirates.
The vessel, carrying 80,800 MT of crude oil, is the third Indian-flagged fuel carrier heading towards India from the region since the start of the war.
Three Indian warships are currently deployed in the Gulf of Oman, watching over oil tankers headed to India.
The oil tanker did not cross the Strait of Hormuz, the centre of military tensions amid the war in West Asia.
Two Indian-flagged LPG carriers, Shivalik and Nanda Devi, with 92,712 metric tonnes of LPG, transited the Strait of Hormuz on Saturday.
The Indian naval presence in the Gulf of Oman is maintained under Operation Sankalp, which predates the current military tensions in the region.
