A fishing vessel named Al Jalali became stranded in the North Arabian Sea after suffering an engine failure nearly 120 nautical miles south of Gwadar. The incident occurred during rough monsoon conditions, making the situation increasingly dangerous for everyone on board.
The vessel was carrying 19 crew members, including 11 Pakistani and 8 Iranian nationals. With strong winds and high waves affecting the area, immediate assistance was needed to ensure the crew’s safety.
The emergency highlighted the importance of rapid maritime response during severe weather conditions.
After receiving information about the emergency, the Joint Maritime Information Coordination Centre (JMICC) quickly coordinated a rescue mission. The Pakistan Navy immediately deployed PNS Taimur to reach the stranded vessel without delay.
Despite challenging sea conditions caused by the monsoon, the naval crew successfully reached Al Jalali and began rescue operations. Their timely response ensured that all 19 crew members remained safe throughout the mission.
The operation demonstrated the Navy’s readiness to respond to emergencies at sea.
Upon reaching the fishing vessel, Pakistan Navy personnel provided the stranded crew with essential supplies, including food, drinking water, and medical assistance. These immediate measures helped ensure the well-being of everyone on board after hours at sea.
The naval team then safely secured the vessel and towed it toward the shore while navigating difficult weather and rough waters. The successful operation prevented the situation from becoming more serious.
The rescue reflected the professionalism and humanitarian role of Pakistan’s maritime forces.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif praised the Pakistan Navy for its swift action, professionalism, and dedication during the rescue mission. He commended the successful operation, saying it reflected the Navy’s strong commitment to protecting lives and responding effectively to maritime emergencies.
The rescue of all 19 crew members stands as another example of Pakistan Navy’s preparedness and operational capability in challenging conditions. It also highlights the country's continued efforts to ensure safety and security in its coastal and maritime waters.
