"There's a bow and there are two ships , torn in half,"
β more footage from the site of the wreck of Russian tankers in the Kerch Strait.
The Russian Emergencies Ministry officially confirmed that the Volgoneft-212 and Volgoneft-239 are sinking. An MI-8 helicopter has been dispatched to the scene. There are 13 people and fuel oil on board the Volgoneft-212, and 14 people and oil products on board the Volgoneft-239.
"More than 50 specialists and 11 pieces of equipment are already involved in eliminating the consequences. Further information is being clarified," the Ministry of Emergency Situations reports.
I see that the front fell off. Because a wave hit it. At sea.
Next thing you'll be telling me is they were made of cardboard derivatives.
Γ wave hitting it? At sea? Chance of a million!
They were rusty ass 50 year old ships that had the middles cut out of them and the ends welded together so they would be shorter, but keep getting used. They busted apart at the welds, and I don't even think they were supposed to still be being used as ocean tankers anymore. They were supposed to be on rivers after the hack job.
It's ok they were outside the environment.
