[South Korean people urge the government to stop considering sending troops to the Strait of Hormuz] On September 7, according to Yonhap News Agency, citizens and labor groups in Gwangju, Jeonnam, South Korea, issued a statement on the 7th, urging the South Korean government to "stop considering sending troops to the Strait of Hormuz and seek diplomatic solutions rather than military intervention." Previously, many South Korean media reported that South Korea is likely to dispatch support ships or patrol aircraft to support U.S. warships operating near the Strait of Hormuz. In response, the Gwangju Citizens United for Economic Justice issued a statement on the same day, saying, "Even if we send our troops to military conflict areas and call them 'non-combat missions,' the danger will not disappear." "The lives of citizens and soldiers must not be used as a means of diplomacy or alliance." (Global Network)
