Aden Harbor

The Indian Navy sailed into a barrage of bombs on Tuesday evening to evacuate nearly 350 Indians from war-torn Yemen, sources told NDTV. They have reached Djibouti - across the Red Sea on the horn of Africa - where the Indian Air Force's C-17s are waiting to fly them home.

India has received permission to dock its vessels at Yemen's Aden harbor to evacuate nearly 4000 Indians who are stranded in the war-torn nation.
