At least 6,000 sailors remain stranded aboard hundreds of ships in the Persian Gulf six months into the war with Iran, according to the United Nations' maritime agency.
The International Maritime Organization said Friday that 19 seafarers have been killed since the conflict began Feb. 28.
At least 70 attacks on international shipping have also been recorded in the Persian Gulf during the war, according to the agency.
The disruption comes as shipping through the Strait of Hormuz remains well below normal levels despite U.S. efforts to secure the critical waterway.
Before the war, roughly 20% of the world's traded oil and natural gas passed through the Strait of Hormuz.
