호르무즈 해협에서 폭발과 화재로 피해를 입은 한국 선박 HMM 나무가 8일 두바이 항구에 도착해 조사를 받는다.
HMM 나무호는 파나마 국적 벌크선으로 한국 HMM이 운영한다. 선박은 4일 전인 월요일 해협에서 폭발이 발생한 뒤 UAE 움 알 쿠와인 인근 해역에서 예인되어 새벽 0시 20분에 두바이 항에 도착했다.
선원 24명이 탑승 중이며 한국인 6명을 포함한다. 화재는 발생 4시간 만에 진화됐다. 한국 정부는 원인 조사를 위해 팀을 파견했다.
정부는 이란 공격이나 내부 고장이라는 상반된 주장 속에서 신중한 입장을 유지하고 있으며 군사 공격을 뒷받침하는 증거는 발견되지 않았다.
