South Korea is considering sending maritime patrol aircraft to the Strait of Hormuz, as confirmed by national security advisor Wi Sung-lac. Discussions with the U.S. are ongoing, but combat operations are ruled out. The decision is not finalized, and the focus is on surveillance missions. The Strait remains a hotspot due to increased attacks on commercial vessels, with 12 incidents reported in one week. Iran has threatened to block unauthorized maritime routes, raising risks for oil tankers. Meanwhile, Qatar mediators have proposed a new agreement to end the conflict, but Iran has deemed the proposals unacceptable.
