India Denies US Navy Port Use for Iran Strikes Dismissing Claims as Baseless
Claims that US Navy operations against Iran are utilizing Indian ports have been vehemently denied by India. The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) issued a strong rebuttal, labeling these assertions as “fake” and “baseless.” This clarification follows remarks made by a former US Army Colonel on a US-based news channel, suggesting reliance on Indian ports due to perceived US base destructions. India maintains that the safety of its nationals in the Gulf region is a paramount concern.
