[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Heung-soon] The Munmu the Great (4400-ton class), which carried the 34th Cheonghae Unit crew members who experienced a COVID-19 cluster infection, arrived in South Korea on the 11th, 52 days after departing from Africa.
The Navy announced that 147 soldiers who were urgently dispatched to Africa safely entered the Jinhae Naval Base on the Munmu the Great on the same day. After handing over the ship, the urgently dispatched soldiers are scheduled to return to their respective units.
After a cluster infection occurred in the 34th Cheonghae Unit in July, the military authorities urgently dispatched transport aircraft to transfer 301 crew members back to South Korea. Additionally, a handover team, mainly composed of personnel from the Gang Gam-chan, was urgently dispatched to take over the Munmu the Great locally.
