RIP to dead sailors.
How did they manage to tip over a war ship at the dry dock? The work place looks really messy though.
Fourteen personnel were rescued from the dry dock and two, including one Navy diver, are missing after INS Betwa, a guided missile frigate and a frontline warship of the Indian Navy, tipped over on Monday during repairs, leading to extensive damage.
The main mast has broken and diving operations have started. The Indian Navy has ordered a court of inquiry into the accident that occurred at around 2 pm. An accident of this proportion has never happened with the Indian Navy. Casualties, if any, could not be confirmed.

It's unbelievable. For example, India lost a submarine while still in the port. Other countries lose their ships or subs in on the sea. Only India lose them in the port. It's not a good Idea to have India dock their ships or subs in your country.
LOL I can't stop laughing at this stupid incident
Only in india their subs sink in 30 feet of water and ships tip over in dry docks
First the sub, now the Frigate and what's next.......
They have forgot seamanship practices I guess...
- The dock looks like the jungle has overtaken it.
- How does a ship overturn in a dock?
Dude, before laughing,at least first learn to build your own ships and stop purchasing second hand stuffs at subsidized rates from others. At least our ships don't get hijacked unlike yours.
