In a press release this afternoon (the 10th), the Blue House said the NSC working-level coordination meeting discussed the incident and the damage to the vessel. Earlier, the government told reporters that the fire aboard the Namu was caused by strikes from unidentified aerial objects. According to the government, on the afternoon of the 4th (local time), 2 unidentified aerial objects struck the outer plating of the Namu\u2019s stern port-side ballast tank at roughly 1-minute intervals. Authorities said they will continue analyzing engine fragments and other debris recovered at the scene. #BlueHouse #NSC #NationalSecurityCouncil #Namu #UnidentifiedAerialObject #Strike Yonhap News TV \u2014 For inquiries and tips: KakaoTalk\/LINE jebo23.
