India Summons Pakistan Diplomat After Naval Collision in Arabian SeaPreviousNext

On September 15, 2026, an Indian Navy warship and a Pakistan Navy vessel collided in international waters of the North Arabian Sea. India described the Pakistani ship's approach as high-speed and unprofessional, leading to the collision without causing major damage. India summoned Pakistan's Charge d'Affaires in New Delhi to lodge a strong protest, citing violation of the 1991 bilateral agreement on advance notice of military exercises and troop movements. Both sides were urged to observe due care to prevent future incidents.
