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.
Fuel shortages have been reported across Kenya, particularly in Nairobi and North Rift areas, despite government claims of sufficient reserves. Tensions between Iran, the US and Israel in the Strait of Hormuz are disrupting global fuel shipping. Drivers complain of lacking petrol and diesel at stations.
