Cargo ship in NATO zone near Ukrainian border ‘explodes after hitting sea mine’

A big ship crashed into a bomb in the Danube River, which caused a big boom.

A video on Twitter shows that the 12 crew members who were on a ship in Romania have been taken to safety today.

The ship, which belonged to Togo, made an urgent call for help called Mayday after the explosion happened.

The coast guards went to assist the crew at the Sulina canal, which is the furthest point in the east of Romania.

12 people who worked on a ship that carries goods were kept safe after a big blast happened close to a port in Romania.
The news said that there was an explosion in the engine room of a boat. It happened because the boat may have hit a sea mine.

The Romanian defence analyst, Radu Tudor, showed a video from the area and said that there was an explosion this morning on a ship with the Togo flag. This happened in the Sulina area of the Danube Delta.

The boat was broken, Romanian rescuers saved more than 12 crew members. It looks like the boat crashed into a explosive device in the sea.

However, a Romanian Naval Authority official stated that there is no evidence suggesting that the explosion was caused by a sea mine.
They also said that the ship is somewhat steady and it doesn’t appear to be going down.

The ship came to the Sulina port on September 12 and was waiting to go through the Bîstroe channel.

There has been a lot of stress and worry at the Romanian border near the river for a few weeks now. This is because people have found small parts of drones a short distance away from villages where many people live.

Ukraine is a country that sells a lot of grain to other countries. Russia has been attacking Ukraine’s agricultural and port buildings because they don’t want the agreement that allows Ukraine to transfer grain safely. This agreement was made by the United Nations and Turkey.

Small flying robots called drones have been attacking the ports of Reni and Izmail near the Danube River, which are very close to Nato territory.

Before Russia stopped participating in the agreement, the ports on the Danube River were responsible for about 25% of Ukraine’s grain exports.
