Man arrested over UK ship collision is Russian, owner says Master of Solong, which was in collision with tanker, was arrested on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter

Well of course they had to be involved somewhere. How else can you cruise at 16 knots straight into a tanker full of aviation fuel on its way to supply the US Military - *in broad daylight*? #wato @lbc.co.uk #MVSolong #Russia #UkraineWar #bbcpm

Container ship #MVSolong collides with tanker #MVStenaImmaculate, #NorthSea, 10 March 2025

The collision between #StenaImmaculate and #MVSolong happened at 1000 GMT. By 1020 GMT #lifeboats in Bridlington, Cleethorpes, Mablethorpe and Skegness were deployed. That's just twenty minutes between collision, report, assessment, alarm and launch.

That is simply amazing. Bravo #RNLI.
