In a concerning incident, two Indian fishermen from Karaikal were injured when the Sri Lankan Navy allegedly opened fire in the Jaffna Sea. The fishermen were part of a group of 13 who had ventured out in two boats to fish near Paruththura beach in Jaffna, the Rameswaram Fisherman Association (RFA) reported.
As they were fishing, a Sri Lankan Navy patrol boat approached the area and intercepted both Indian vessels. Two Sri Lankan Navy personnel boarded one of the boats, reportedly to arrest the fishermen for alleged cross-border fishing. In an attempt to escape, the fishermen turned their boat towards Indian waters with the two Sri Lankan officers still on board. The Sri Lankan patrol then opened fire, injuring two fishermen.
