As part of the Indian Navy’s Eastern Fleet Operational Deployment, INS Kulish arrived at Ream Naval Base, Cambodia, on 12 Sep 2026. The visit aims to further strengthen maritime cooperation and enhance professional linkages between the Indian Navy and the Royal Cambodian Navy.

On arrival, the ship was received by representatives of the Royal Cambodian Navy and officials from the Embassy of India in Cambodia.

The programme during the stay will comprise professional interactions, familiarisation visits, sports fixtures and structured naval engagements, providing opportunities for personnel to exchange domain knowledge and enhance operational synergy.

The port call forms part of India’s continuing efforts to expand maritime outreach across the Indo-Pacific and is in keeping with the Act East Policy, the vision of MAHASAGAR (Mutual and Holistic Advancement for Security and Growth Across Regions) and India’s endeavour to promote a free, open and inclusive maritime environment.
