Pakistan Navy Ship (PNS) Zulfiquar successfully rescued an Iranian fishing dhow, AL Muhammadi, with 23 fishermen aboard in the Gulf of Aden, a statement from Pakistan Navy confirmed on Thursday. Responding swiftly to a distress call, PNS Zulfiquar deployed medical and technical teams to assist the stranded crew. The team provided first aid to a fisherman with severe hand injuries and examined two more sick crew members. They also repaired the dhow’s engine to restore its functionality.
This humanitarian mission reflects Pakistan Navy’s commitment to regional maritime security and the safety of seafarers. Earlier this year, Pakistan Navy similarly assisted Iranian fishermen in distress, further strengthening ties between the two nations
