Seafarers attacked in the Strait of Hormuz sue shipping company in Thailand

Three former crew members of the Thailand-flagged ship Mayuree Naree sued Precious Shipping Co. and affiliated entities over labor rights violations and unfair dismissal after the vessel was attacked in the Strait of Hormuz in March 2026. The lawsuit alleges the defendants endangered lives by sailing through a high-risk area and dismissed the crew before contract completion, citing inadequate compensation and PTSD diagnoses.
