The Hormuz Letter

BREAKING: South Korea is now making concrete preparations to deploy military assets and troops to the Strait of Hormuz, including P-8 Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft, Navy UDT EOD teams, and naval logistics support ships, per a high-ranking Ministry of National Defense official to SBS. The South Korean government, which previously maintained the position that it would only pursue Hormuz deployment after the US-Iran war ended, has now completely changed its policy and begun preparations for deployment despite the ongoing conflict. Consultations regarding ports of call and operational bases with neighboring countries are also underway.
