New Delhi attacked traders in "the great interest" of the international community.

Jayshaanian, India's Foreign Minister, Tehran, said that Jaishankar, Kyzhalkar, and Iranian associations offered two days of visitors and attacks in Aden Bay.

Hossain, together with Iran's opponents, said that after a closed conversation with Iran, Kaisholland would affect the economy and the state's economic interests. Citing a noticeable increase in threats to maritime traffic in the Indian Ocean region, Jaishankar added: "This situation is not in favor of any side and this must be recognized." About 80% of India's trade with Europe passes through the Red Sea.

The value of India's exports has more than doubled due to regional tensions, Reuters reported, citing industry sources. Indian exports worth at least $10 billion in the fiscal year to March 2024 will suffer due to high transportation costs and delays in order delivery, said Arun Kumar Garodia, chairman of the Automobile Export Promotion Council of India, for the news agency.

Jaishankar's visit to Tehran comes as tensions in the Middle East have spread to the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea, and Houthi rebels have attacked passing merchant ships. The Houthis vowed to continue attacks on Israeli and US ships "until the blockade of Gaza is lifted". In response, the United States and Britain launched more than 70 airstrikes against Houthi rebel targets in Yemen last week. The Indian Navy has significantly increased its presence in the Arabian Sea following the attack, deploying more warships to ward off potential threats to merchant shipping. New Delhi and Tehran agreed on Monday to further develop Chabahar port on Iran's southeast coast in a historic development that will expand India's shipping capabilities to Central Asia, Russia, and Europe. This port will play an important role in operating the North-South international transport corridor that bypasses the unstable regions of the Middle East and connects India, Russia, and the CIS region through Iran.

New Delhi and Tehran also stressed the importance of preventing further escalation of violence in Gaza. The foreign minister reiterated India's firm stand against terrorism and said it was "necessary" to prevent civilian casualties. Jaishankar also reiterated New Delhi's support for a two-state solution to the Israel-Palestine conflict. According to an Iranian publication, Amir Abdullah told Jaishankar that Yemeni leaders would only stop ships sailing to "occupied territories" to carry weapons needed for war, while "war and genocide" continue in the Gaza Strip. The Iranian diplomat also emphasized that the White House should not associate American national interests with "the occupations and the apartheid regime," referring to Israel. On Monday, Prime Minister Jaishankar met Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, conveyed his greetings to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and expressed condolences over the blast that killed nearly 100 people in Kerman, Iran, earlier this year.

Hours later, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said on Monday that it had fired ballistic missiles at ISIS bases in Syria and the headquarters of Israel's Mossad intelligence agency in Iraq in response to the bombing.
