It’s all OK?” to which the response comes, “All OK, all OK. Negative, no fire.”An earlier post by the union noted that the vessel was not responding.Oman-bound Liaki Freedom is an oil and chemical tanker sailing under the flag of the Marshall Islands.Since June 8, three vessels with Indian crew have been targeted by the US military, resulting in the deaths of three Indian sailors in the second incident on June 10. The third ship was attacked the following day.Also Read: Trump blames Iran for attacking Indian ships amid New Delhi fury over US attack that killed three Indian sailorsThe US military has claimed the vessels were struck while attempting to breach a US-imposed naval blockade of Iran, in place since April 13. The blockade was introduced after Tehran effectively closed the Strait of Hormuz in early March, in response to US and Israeli strikes on February 28 that triggered the Middle East conflict.Nearly 20% of global crude oil passes through the Strait of Hormuz, making it a critical maritime route.The MEA has twice summoned Jason Meeks, the US Chargé d’Affaires in New Delhi, to protest the targeting of Indian-crewed tankers.External affairs minister S Jaishankar also spoke with his US counterpart Marco Rubio, reiterating India’s “strong protest” over the deaths of Indian sailors.Get the latest India news and live updates.

Now, the country’s drug regulator wants manufacturers and importers to demonstrate that the products they sell comply with safety standards and carry adequate warnings for consumers.In a circular issued on June 10, the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO) directed companies dealing in hair colour cosmetics to ensure compliance with the Cosmetics Rules, 2020, and applicable Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) norms governing ingredients, safety restrictions and labelling.The move comes amid heightened regulatory attention on cosmetic products and places the spotlight on ingredients used in hair dyes, some of which are subject to restrictions because of their potential to trigger allergic reactions or other adverse effects in sensitive users.CDSCO said hair colour products must comply with standards that specify which colouring ingredients can be used, which substances are restricted, and what warnings, directions and safety information must be displayed on labels. These include mandatory caution statements and patch-test instructions intended to alert consumers to possible allergic reactions before use.The regulator reminded manufacturers and importers that BIS standards classify cosmetic ingredients into those generally recognised as safe and those that are restricted or not recognised as safe for cosmetic use. Companies have also been told that any changes in product composition, quality specifications or labelling must be reported to the relevant licensing authority.While the circular does not announce a recall or enforcement action, it serves as a clear warning that companies are responsible for ensuring that products already on the market meet prescribed standards.The directive could lead manufacturers to re-examine formulations, packaging and consumer information provided with hair colour products, a category that has witnessed rapid growth amid rising demand from both younger users and ageing consumers seeking to conceal greying hair.Get the latest India news and live updates.
