Despite the multiple missiles launch of North Korea, the Republic of Korea National Red Cross decided to keep sending fertilizer to North Korea. On July 6, 5,000 tons of fertilizer was loaded onto a ship, the Seamaster (a Korean cargo boat of 6,800 tons), which will leave Ulsan Port on the afternoon of July 7 for Haeju in the North. The fertilizer shipment is the fifteenth to go to the North and is the last share of the promised fertilizer aid of 200,000 tons. The fertilizer was supposed to be shipped to North Korea by June 13, but had been delayed because of the difficulty of finding a ship.
