A cargo ship has broken into two pieces after running aground in a northern Japanese port and is spilling oil into the sea, Japan’s coast guard has said, ABC reported.
All 21 Chinese and Filipino crew members were safely rescued by the coast guard, the ship’s Japanese operator, NYK Line, said.
The 39,910-tonne woodchip carrier Crimson Polaris went aground on Wednesday while sailing inside Hachinohe Port.
It managed to free itself from the seabed, but suffered a crack that widened and eventually caused the vessel to split into two early Thursday, the coast guard said.
