The U.S. Embassy in India says the U.S. is compensating the family of a dead Indian fisherman and is giving assistance to three survivors of a U.S. Navy ship’s firing on their small boat near Dubai last month. The embassy did not disclose the payment amounts. The U.S. Navy said the fishermen’s boat rapidly approached the refueling ship USNS Rappahannock near Dubai’s Jebel Ali port and that the boat disregarded warnings before the Navy vessel’s gunners opened fire. One of the Indian survivors has said they received no warning.
