It’s heartbreaking that 7 Filipino seafarers got hurt in this Iran-linked attack. Our government needs to do more to protect OFWs in dangerous zones like the Strait of Hormuz.
I read that Iran seized a container ship just days before. This escalation feels like the Gulf War era all over again. How long until full-blown conflict?
Why are Filipino seafarers still being deployed to such high-risk waters? The 12 Philippine crew on the MSC Aries are proof that companies prioritize profit over safety.

Shocking that the Philippines hasn’t banned crew deployment to the Hormuz area yet. We need a total deployment ban until Iran guarantees safe passage.
