South Korea seized a 5,000-ton cargo ship Thursday on suspicion of violating U.N. Security Council sanctions against North Korea, sources said. The freighter, whose origin is unknown, is now anchored at the Port of Busan on the country's southeastern coast. It was not immediately known what its violations are. In late March, another 3,000-ton cargo ship, DEYI, which was heading to Vladivostok, Russia, was seized in waters off Yeosu, along the southern coast, under similar suspicions. The ship is also currently anchored at the anchorage at Busan Port, with the captain and other crew onboard. Source: Yonhap News Agency
