A massive fire broke out on a cargo ship carrying dangerous goods, 102 nautical miles off the Goa coast. The vessel, en route from Mundra to Colombo, experienced multiple explosions. The Indian Coast Guard responded swiftly, diverting ships and deploying a Dornier aircraft for aerial assessment. Despite rough seas and poor weather, firefighting operations are ongoing. The crew has been reassured of their safety, with additional Coast Guard ships dispatched to aid the effort. This incident follows a recent Coast Guard rescue of 11 fishermen off the Kerala coast amid severe weather.
