The Strait of Hormuz Attack: A Wake Up Call for Shipping Companies The Thai Labour Court's decision to consider damages sought by the crew of the Mayuree Naree, a cargo vessel attacked in the Strait of Hormuz in March, highlights the precarious lives of sailors working in high risk areas.
The incident occurred during the US Israeli conflict with Iran and serves as a stark reminder that shipping companies often prioritize profits over employee safety.
The crew's accusations against Precious Shipping and its captain are alarming. They claim to have been taken into dangerous areas without adequate protection or support, which is not an isolated incident.
