South Korea says three more of its stranded vessels are set to leave Hormuz
SEOUL, South Korea — South Korean President Lee Jae Myung says that three additional vessels are set to depart the Strait of Hormuz over the weekend.
He adds that this will leave five South Korean cargo ships trapped in the key waterway since the beginning of the US-Israel war with Iran, when the latter imposed a closure on the strait.
