00:00Hello, I'm Greg Wright of the Yorkshire Post.
00:03Fires on board a cargo ship Natanka, which collided in the North Sea off the East Yorkshire coast, have continued to burn overnight.
00:13Coast Guard were monitoring the situation, with the vessels still alight on Tuesday morning.
00:19A search for a missing crew member from the cargo ship was called off on Monday night.
00:25Coast Guard said efforts to find the person from the Solong container ship had ended after an extensive search,
00:32following the ship's collision with a Stena Immaculate tanker on Monday morning.
00:37The company managing the Stena Immaculate, Crowley, said the vessel was struck by the Solong while anchored off the coast,
00:44causing multiple explosions on board, and jet fuel it was carrying to be released.
