THAILAND has successfully secured safe passage for its oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz following diplomatic coordination with regional partners, helping ease concerns over potential energy supply disruptions amid the ongoing tensions in the Middle East, according to the government’s public relations department.

According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA), Thailand has engaged in direct diplomatic communication to clarify that Thai vessels are not involved in the conflict since the Thai cargo ship Mayuree Naree came under attack on 11 March while sailing in the Strait of Hormuz, leaving three crew members unaccounted for.
