Twenty crew have been rescued from a Thai ship hit by unknown projectiles in the Strait of Hormuz but three crew remain missing, Thailand’s Transport Ministry says.
The ministry says the crew had abandoned the vessel in a lifeboat and were rescued by the Omani navy. It says an explosion occurred in the stern of the ship and caused a fire in the engine compartment, where the remaining three crew members had been working.
