NEW DELHI -- India has deployed destroyers equipped with guided missiles in the Arabian Sea "to maintain a deterrent presence" following an attack on a tanker off its west coast.
The vessel that came under attack on Saturday, the MV Chem Pluto, has reached the Indian city of Mumbai with a naval escort, the defense ministry said in a statement. The Liberian-flagged oil tanker had a crew of 21 Indians and one Vietnamese, who were all unhurt.
