Sailors in Strait of Hormuz remain stranded as Iran war risks attacks
The New York Times Business reports that thousands of civilian workers are still stranded on ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz amid risks tied to the Iran war.
The outlet says some crews are at continued risk of attack by Iran, leaving shipping activity and personnel in a prolonged state of uncertainty.
In one case described by the NYT Business, sailors on a vessel have been held by the Iranian navy for more than three months.
The report underscores how the conflict is directly disrupting maritime operations and the safety of civilians working on ships in the region.
