"Sihasak" revealed that three crew members of the Mayuree Naree died in the attack on Hormuz and is urgently coordinating with Iran to allow the nine Thai ships stranded in the Strait of Hormuz to pass through during the two-week ceasefire.

April 8, 2569 at 17.10:XNUMX a.m. Mr. Sihasak Phuangketkaew, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs. The press release stated that all three crew members of the Mayurinaree, which was attacked by Iran in the Strait of Hormuz, have been confirmed dead. The ministry extended its condolences to the families of the victims.

Mr. Sihasak revealed that he is scheduled to visit Oman from April 15-16 at the invitation of Mr. Badr bin Hamad Al Bouzaidi, the Omani Foreign Minister. The purpose of the visit is to thank the Omani authorities for their assistance in coordinating the rescue of the crew of the Mayurinaree, which was attacked in the Strait of Hormuz. All 20 crew members of the ship have already returned safely to Thailand.

However, Mr. Sihasak said it was regrettable that Iranian and Omani rescue teams were unable to enter the ship, where it was eventually determined that all three crew members had died. He therefore offered his condolences to their families.

Mr. Sihasak further stated that the purpose of this visit to Oman was to follow up on discussions between Iran and Oman regarding jointly managing maritime navigation through the Strait of Hormuz to ensure safety and uphold the principle of freedom of navigation.

Mr. Sihasak added that he believes the ceasefire between the United States and Iran, at least two weeks in total, should allow ships still stranded in the Strait of Hormuz to pass through. From Thailand, one ship has already passed through, a vessel belonging to Bangchak Corporation.

Mr. Sihasak further stated that there are currently nine more Thai ships awaiting permission to pass through the Strait of Hormuz, five of which are fertilizer carriers. He therefore requested Oman to help contact Iran to ask for permission to allow the nine Thai ships to pass through the Strait of Hormuz during the two-week ceasefire period.
