Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday asked ministers and government officials to urgently explore alternative sources of energy amid the ongoing US-Israel war on Iran and the continued blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, which has disrupted India’s fuel supplies from the Gulf. At the more than four-hour meeting of the Council of Ministers, he also pushed for a shift beyond conventional energy sources and suggested biogas as a substitute for LPG cooking gas
Iran has instructed employees of companies with ties to the United States and Israel to flee their workplaces immediately. The warning follows a series of devastating airstrikes on Iranian infrastructure, with Tehran vowing that its next move will move beyond a simple “eye for an eye” response.
