What’s happening with the North Sea tanker collision?

CGTN Europe

Aerial views show a huge hole in the side of the tanker Stena Immaculate, which remains anchored at sea. It was struck by the cargo ship Solong, which is still on fire, adrift and expected to sink.  The Stena Immaculate was carrying Jet-A1 fuel for the U.S. military when it was struck by the Portuguese-flagged Solong while anchored near Hull. One sailor is missing, presumed dead – and a 59-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter.   #northsea #tanker #collision #enviromentaldanger
