Maritime Bridge Japan succeeded on the morning of the 11th (Japan time) in interviewing several shipowner-related sources connected to Japan-related vessels anchored in the Persian Gulf west of the Strait of Hormuz.

One Japanese shipowner-related source said: “There is also unconfirmed information that Iran’s Revolutionary Guard may lay naval mines in the Strait of Hormuz, and even if war risk insurance can be arranged, we place priority on the safety of our seafarers, so at present we have no policy of transiting the Strait of Hormuz.”

MBJ独自取材、日本関係船、「ホルムズ通航する方針ない」

本船と定時更新、下船難しく、錨地近くのタンカーが被弾

　Maritime Bridge Japanは日本時間11日午前、ホルムズ海峡以西のペルシャ湾内に停泊中の日本関係船の複数の船主関係者への取材に成功した。

ある日本の船主関係者は、「イランの革命防衛隊がホルムズ海峡に機雷を敷設するとの未確認情報もあり、損害保険をかけることができても船員の安全優先を考え現状でホルムズ海峡を通航する方針はない」と話した。
