World Shipping Council statement on attacks in the Red Sea

“What we’re seeing unfold in the Red Sea is shocking and unacceptable. Seafarers are being killed while simply doing their jobs,” WSC President & CEO Joe Kramek said today in response to attacks on commercial ships in the Red Sea over the past few days.

“The World Shipping Council extends its deepest condolences to the families of those who have been lost, and our thoughts are with all those affected. These are devastating, deeply felt losses for the global shipping community.”

“We cannot allow attacks on commercial ships to become normalized or weaponized as political tools. The safety of those at sea, and the freedoms and rights of navigation, must be protected. We support the IMO Secretary-General’s call for dialogue, to ensure the safety of seafarers,” Joe Kramek concluded.
