Cave-Dive Recovery: The Maldives has recovered the last two bodies of the four Italian divers found dead deep inside a Vaavu Atoll cave—Muriel Oddenino and Giorgia Sommacal—bringing the main recovery to a close after Finnish divers, with Maldives coastguard and police support, pulled out the remaining victims. Investigation Focus: Authorities say the bodies were found around 60m depth (about double the recreational limit), and officials are coordinating with Italy on repatriation while probing what went wrong, including whether divers entered the cave system beyond expectations. Regional Security: India’s multilateral exercise PRAGATI 2026 is underway at Umroi, Meghalaya, with 12 partner nations including Maldives, focusing on counter-terror drills in tough jungle and semi-mountain terrain. Fisheries Trade: Britain has suspended tariffs on Maldivian tuna exports, a move Maldives leaders say should boost fishermen’s incomes and expand UK market access. Ocean Governance: The IOTC agreed steps to reduce yellowfin tuna catches over time and advance monitoring, including a voluntary vessel monitoring pilot.
