South Korea's foreign ministry said on May 27 that anti-ship missiles likely developed by Iran were used in the May 4 attack on the HMM Namu in the Strait of Hormuz. The government pointed to evidence linking Iran but could not confirm the perpetrator or intent. Iran's ambassador denied involvement.
An explosion and fire struck the South Korean-operated HMM Namu bulk carrier anchored off the UAE near the Strait of Hormuz late on May 4. U.S. President Donald Trump claimed Iran 'shot at' the vessel for going 'it alone' and urged Seoul to join the U.S.-led Project Freedom mission. South Korea's government prioritizes investigating the cause before responding.
