3 Coast Guard Crew Missing After Emergency Landing in Arabian Sea

An Indian Coast Guard helicopter with four crew members on board made an emergency landing in the Arabian Sea off the Porbandar coast late on the night of September 2. The Advanced Light Helicopter (ALH) was engaged in a rescue operation to evacuate an injured crew member from the oil tanker Motor Tanker Hari Leela when it was forced to land.

According to reports, three members of the Indian Coast Guard are missing following the emergency landing. The helicopter had been dispatched around 11 pm to assist the Motor Tanker Hari Leela, located approximately 45 kilometers from Porbandar, Gujarat. The helicopter was responding to a medical evacuation request for a seriously injured crew member.

The Indian Coast Guard has launched an extensive search operation, deploying four ships and two aircraft to locate the missing crew members. The wreckage of the helicopter has been found, but the search for the remaining crew continues.

In a statement, the Indian Coast Guard highlighted that the ALH had recently performed a significant rescue operation during cyclonic weather in Gujarat. The incident occurred as the helicopter was approaching the tanker for the evacuation. The ongoing search mission reflects the Coast Guard’s commitment to ensuring the safety of its personnel and successfully completing rescue operations.
