Two South Korean-operated vessels passed through Strait of Hormuz after MOU signed

-

SEOUL, June ‌22 (Reuters) - Two vessels ​operated by South Korea passed ⁠through the Strait of Hormuz after the U.S. and ​Iran signed a memorandum of ‌understanding on a ceasefire agreement last week, Seoul's Ministry of ⁠Oceans and Fisheries ⁠said on Monday.

The vessels are sailing normally, but have not yet fully ‌exited a high-risk zone, the ⁠ministry said, declining ‌to disclose ​further details on the vessels.

The ships do not have ‌South Korean crew ​on board ⁠and are not bound ‌for South ⁠Korea, the ministry said.

A total of 22 South Korean-operated ships ​remain stranded ‌in the Strait of ⁠Hormuz, it said.
