Defense News ,Red Sea :- Yemeni Houthi rebels are causing trouble in the shipping world, affecting companies in the West and now reaching Indian shores. After the United States and the United Kingdom responded to Houthi attacks on commercial ships in the Red Sea, companies are feeling the impact on their supply chains.The attacks began when tensions rose in the Israel-Hamas conflict in October. The Houthi rebels, supporting Hamas, started targeting merchant ships passing through Yemen to or from Egypt's Suez Canal.As a result, companies are now opting for a longer but safer route around southern Africa, increasing shipping time. Initially unaffected, Indian companies are now feeling the pinch due to the interconnected nature of global trade.Impact on India:Recent incidents in the Middle East have raised concerns for Indian shipping companies. RBB Ship Chartering, a company in ship chartering services, reports a significant rise in shipping costs. CEO Raajesh Bhojwani highlighted that the re-routing of shipping assets has tripled transportation costs.The Red Sea is a crucial route for India's trade with the US East Coast, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. The Suez Canal is vital for direct passage between Europe and Asia, making the Red Sea route essential. The alternative route through Africa adds around 30 days to travel time.A variety of Indian exports, including steel, textiles, chemicals, vehicles, and agro-products, pass through the Red Sea route to reach Europe and the West.Challenges for Indian Exporters:The situation has led to a spike in insurance premiums for ships in the Red Sea, making it financially burdensome for Indian exporters. The longer route around the Cape of Good Hope increases journey time by 8-10 days, resulting in higher fuel costs. This puts Indian exporters at risk of losing competitiveness in other markets.In 2023, global trade challenges, compounded by the Middle East situation, raised concerns for India's policymakers. A report suggests that India's total exports in FY24 could decrease by $30 billion, with an anticipated drop of 6.7%.International Impact:US retailer Target experienced minor disruptions in shipments from India and Pakistan, key regions for apparel manufacturing. India's proximity to Iran, a supporter of the Houthi rebels, adds significance to its role in this tense situation.India's External Affairs Minister is expected to visit Tehran following a conversation with the US Secretary of State. The Commerce Ministry plans to strategize measures in response to the trade impact.Shipping Statistics:Clarkson Research Services Ltd. reported a 44% decrease in ships using the Suez Canal in early January. Major shipping corporations like Maersk are diverting ships around Africa, adding a week or two to voyages and increasing shipping, insurance, and fuel costs.Houthi Tactics:Houthi rebels are using drones and anti-ship missiles, even seizing an Israeli-owned ship and crew with a helicopter. Originally targeting vessels bound for or from Israel, they now threaten any vessel, including container ships and oil tankers flagged to countries like Norway and Liberia.The situation poses challenges for global trade, prompting major corporations to adapt their shipping routes and adding complexities to the already delicate balance of international commerce.

Defense News ,India :- After seven long years of not knowing what happened, the families of the 29 people who were on a missing Indian Air Force An-32 plane finally have some answers. The Indian government shared that they found parts of the plane in the Bay of Bengal, giving a real connection to the sad event that took place in 2016.Back on July 22, 2016, the An-32 plane, with 29 people on a regular mission, disappeared over the Bay of Bengal. Despite many planes and ships searching, they couldn't find any sign of the plane or the people. The families of the missing went through a lot of pain and had many questions that nobody could answer.Then, the National Institute of Ocean Technology (NIOT), a group under the Ministry of Earth Sciences, stepped in. Recently, NIOT used a special underwater robot called an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) to explore the last known location of the missing plane. The AUV, working 3400 meters below the surface, used advanced tools like multi-beam sonar and high-resolution photos to look at the ocean floor.After carefully studying the images, they found parts of the plane on the seabed, about 310 kilometers away from the Chennai coast. By checking closely, they confirmed that these were parts of an An-32 plane. Since there were no reports of other missing planes in that area, they were sure that these were the remains of the lost Indian Air Force An-32.Even though this discovery brings some closure to the families, it's a mix of good and sad feelings. Confirming the crash is heartbreaking, but it also ends the long time of not knowing. Now, the families can start to grieve and remember their loved ones.Finding the debris also gives a chance for more investigation and recovery. NIOT will now work on mapping the crash site and figuring out if they can bring back the wreckage and the remains of the people. This information might help understand why the crash happened and give some comfort to the families.

A brave officer named Major Rajprasad from the Indian Army has created an amazing new landmine system. This system uses both artificial intelligence (AI) and human control to protect soldiers and civilians. It's a big step forward in making battlefields safer for everyone.In Simple Terms: A Smart Landmine SystemUnlike old landmines that explode when touched by anyone, this new system is different. It has a "human-in-loop" design, which means it combines AI with human decision-making. The system uses AI to figure out if the approaching person is a friend or an enemy. It checks movement, sounds, and other data. It only activates if it senses a potential threat, and a human confirms it.Benefits of the Smart Landmine System:1. Fewer Accidents for Civilians:   Old landmines cause accidents for innocent people in war zones. This new system lowers the risk by only targeting those who might be a threat.2. Safer Soldiers:   Soldiers often have to go through dangerous minefields in enemy territory. With AI helping to find and deactivate mines, it makes their missions safer and more successful.3. Better Control in Battle:   The system can tell the difference between friends and enemies. This means it can target more precisely, reducing the chance of hurting innocent people. It helps in making military operations more strategic and efficient.Major Rajprasad thinks that similar AI-powered landmine technologies are becoming popular globally. These technologies could replace old landmines that aren't as smart. This change supports international efforts to make war less harmful to civilians.Even though we don't know all the details about the system yet, its development is a big deal in military technology. The "human-in-loop" idea not only keeps things safe but also shows a responsible and ethical way of doing war. As the technology gets better, it could save many lives and change how we deal with landmines in wars.
