The destroyer was deployed after a distress call from a British ship with several Indians on board.
The Indian Navy's INS Visakhapatnam has responded to a call from the MV Marlin Luanda, which came under attack on the night of January 26 in the Gulf of Aden.
In a post on X, the Indian Navy wrote that it received a distress call from MV Marlin Luanda - a British oil tanker, which has 22 Indian and one Bangladeshi crewmembers on board.

“The fire-fighting efforts onboard the distressed merchant vessel (MV) is being augmented by the NBCD [nuclear, biological, & chemical defense] team along with firefighting equipment, deployed by INS Visakhapatnam to assist the crew onboard the MV,” the note posted on the social media platform said.
