BANGKOK, April 8 (Reuters) - The three ‌crewmen on the Thai-flagged vessel that was attacked in the Strait of ​Hormuz last month have died, ​Foreign Minister Sihasak Phuangketkeow said ⁠at a press conference on ​Wednesday.

Thailand said 20 crew members ​were rescued by the Omani navy after the attack, which caused an explosion ​in the stern of the ​ship and a fire in the engine ‌room.

Sihasak ⁠said he would travel to Oman in mid-April to seek assistance in coordinating with Iran to secure safe ⁠passage for nine Thai ships that are still stranded in the Strait of ⁠Hormuz.#US-IranTalksFailToReachAgreement #iran #TRUMP $TRUMP $BTC
