- Fearing for its safety, its 34-member crew does not want to test the waters and attempt to cross the Strait of Hormuz, despite demands from the ship's owners.
- "What strikes me as strange is that this company is willing to risk the ship just to pass through the Strait of Hormuz," an electrician aboard the UAE-owned vessel told Euronews.
