Thai sailors attacked in Strait of Hormuz seek damages

Three crew members died and 20 were rescued after two projectiles struck the Thai-flagged Mayuree ​Naree on March 11 as it sailed through the Strait of Hormuz.

The petition, ​seen by Reuters, seeks ⁠damages of at least 1 million baht for each sailor from companies and agencies linked to the vessel owner, SET-listed Precious Shipping Plc, and its captain.
