A cargo vessel turned sideways off the Turkish shore, causing shipping containers to collapse into the water.
According to Sky News, the ship, named Amnah, had a Comoro Islands flag and the crew onboard needed to be rescued.
Local reports suggested that the incident took place at 4:00 am on 24 December 2024, and the ship became unstable as a result of uneven cargo loading.
Sky News revealed officials rescued 10 of the 15 crew members, while the remaining five plunged into the ocean and made it to shore on their own.
Shortly after part of the containers fell into the ocean, the ship was ringed by floating barriers, which helped to limit any marine contamination.
