A fire has severely damaged the INS Brahmaputra at the Mumbai dockyard, where the ship was undergoing repairs. The blaze, which has now been brought under control, has significantly compromised the vessel.
At the time of the fire, the ship was tilted to one side, complicating rescue operations and resulting in the disappearance of one sailor. Rescue teams are actively searching for the missing crew member, while the remaining crew members are reported to be safe.
Efforts are ongoing to stabilize the INS Brahmaputra and resume its repairs. The cause of the fire is under investigation. The Navy has issued a statement regarding the search for the missing sailor and is committed to resolving the situation.
