Collision Between Cargo Ship and Container Vessel Off the Coast of Sicily A collision between two large vessels off the coast of Sicily triggered an alert today, Monday, April 22, at the National Operational Center of the Coast Guard. The collision involved the Turkish-owed general cargo ship the HAYRIYE ANA flying the Liberian flag and the Peter Doehle-managed containership EF OLIVIA flying the Portuguese flag. The two vessels collided approximately 14 nautical miles from Capo Passero, the southeastern tip of the island of Sicily. Several rescue units were immediately dispatched, both naval and aerial. In addition to several patrol boats, the Italian Coast Guard deployed aircraft such as an AW139 helicopter and an Atr42 plane to the scene. The causes of the incident are yet to be determined. The two ships arrived safely at the port of Augusta, escorted by the Coast Guard patrol boats and monitored by an aircraft and helicopter. No consequences for the crews or damage to the marine environment. The ships will now be subjected to a PSC inspection by inspectors from the Maritime Directorate of Catania. ⛴👉🏼Follow us @salvage_and_wreck Tag your friends, and make sure to share (and credit) this footage! ⚓️ Stay tuned for news about maritime casualties!
