On Monday, an oil tanker and a cargo ship collided near Hull in the North Sea, igniting fires on both vessels and injuring at least 32 people. The alarm was raised at 9:48 a.m. (UTC), initiating a large-scale response involving lifeboats, firefighting vessels, and aircraft. The MV Stena Immaculate, owned by Stena Bulk, was anchored at the time, while the Solong was en route from Scotland to Rotterdam. The British Maritime and Coastguard agency is coordinating the emergency response, and assessments for pollution control are underway.
The collision between the MV Stena Immaculate and the Solong resulted in a significant fire, leading to at least 32 injuries and widespread emergency response efforts.
Authorities quickly deployed lifeboats, firefighting vessels, a helicopter, and a fixed-wing aircraft to combat the fires and assist those affected from both vessels.
