Cargo ship captain arrested over collision in North Sea, owner tells BBC

Fire continues as ship's captain arrested, future of both vessels remains uncertain

11 March 2025

"Summary

- The man arrested by Humberside police is the captain of the Solong cargo ship, the vessel's owner tells the BBC

- Earlier, the police force said that a 59-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter, following the North Sea collision

- Assistant Chief Coastguard John Craig says flames are still visible on the Solong, with salvage plans in place for both vessels

- One crew member of the Portuguese cargo ship is "assumed deceased", a UK minister says, as the transport secretary says both Solong and US oil tanker Stena Immaculate are expected to stay afloat

- Owners of the cargo ship say it was not carrying sodium cyanide, as previously reported, but had four empty containers that had once held the toxic chemical."

North Sea oil tanker fire still raging as governments probe causes.

United States, Portuguese and British authorities are investigating what caused a cargo ship to collide with an oil tanker carrying jet fuel for the US military off the coast of eastern England.

With the fire still blazing, UK minister Matthew Pennycook said the three governments were working together but he refused to speculate on potential causes, including foul play.

Yemen news via Russian sources: Ansar Allah movement published details of yesterday's attacks on merchant ships: two oil tankers were targeted.


▪️According to the spokesman of the Yemeni Houthis, General Yahya Sarie, the vessel MV BLUE LAGOON I, carrying about 2 million barrels of oil, was attacked with two ballistic missiles west of the port of As-Salif.

This is almost twice as much as the Greek-owned MV DELTA SOUNION, which the Yemenis attacked on August 21 and which is still burning.

▪️West of the port of Al-Hudaydah, a drone strike hit the Saudi-flagged and Greek-operated ship MV AMJAD.

🔻Both tankers were damaged, but the extent of the damage is still unknown. The information about the successful #AnsarAllah attacks is confirmed by the US Central Command.

Meanwhile, according to the #US agency, work is underway in the #RedSea to prevent an environmental disaster due to the oil spill from the damaged MV DELTA SOUNION.

The Iranian navy seizes an oil tanker in the Gulf of Oman, the 'ST NIKOLAS' which was captured by the United States while carrying Iranian oil some years ago


It seems like Iran is returning the favor and stealing back the oil US stole from them.

The Iranian navy has detained a US tanker in the waters of the Gulf of Oman 'on a court order', Tasnim reported.


According to Sky News, the tanker was boarded by "armed men" wearing military uniforms and masks. IRI claims that the tanker contains stolen oil from Syria and Iraq and it will be confiscated.

This seems to be a response to Americans doing the same with rabkers containing Iranian oil and auctioning them on the market
