Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

While the United States and Iran have each signaled that they may be making progress toward a peace deal, the Strait of Hormuz remains closed.

Thousands of crew members have been stranded in the shipping channel since the war broke out three months ago.

Two seafarers who got stuck in the strait explain what it is like to be trapped in a war zone, and what it would mean to get everyone out.

Guest: Capt. Virendra Vishwakarma, who managed to leave the Strait of Hormuz, and Aung Thu Khant, a seafarer who is still stuck.
