SEOUL, May 20 (Yonhap) -- Foreign Minister Cho Hyun said Wednesday a vessel operated by a South Korean shipping company was currently passing through the Strait of Hormuz in what would mark the first such case involving a Korea-managed ship since the outbreak of the U.S.-Iran war.
The envisioned passage came about two weeks after a Panama-flagged cargo ship, HMM Namu, operated by South Korean shipping company HMM Co., was struck by two unidentified flying objects, causing an explosion and fire and leaving one of the ship's 24 crew members with minor injuries.
