A South Korean government investigation says missiles similar to ones made by Iran were likely used in an attack on a South Korean ship in the Strait of Hormuz, causing a fire and minor injuries. While they haven't confirmed who launched the missiles or why, officials pointed to Iran as a likely source and summoned the Iranian ambassador to protest. The report relies on technical evidence like missile parts but doesn't rule out that other groups with access to Iranian-made weapons could have been responsible.
