India's MEA issued an advisory for nationals considering work on commercial vessels in the Black Sea.
The advisory was prompted by increased missile and drone attacks since April 2026, which killed 5 Indians.
The MEA described the Black Sea security situation as 'highly volatile' due to the ongoing conflict.
It urged Indian nationals to carefully assess security risks before accepting jobs on vessels in the region.
Seafarers are advised to obtain details on route, ports, security, insurance, and emergency procedures.
