The Dutch government says that salvage crews are preparing to tow a car-carrying cargo ship that has been burning for days to a new anchor point after flames and smoke on board subsided.
A boat hoses the smoke from a fire which broke out on a freight ship in the North Sea, about 27 kilometers north of the Dutch island of Ameland, Wednesday, July 26, 2023. A fire on the freight ship Fremantle Highway, carrying nearly 3,000 cars, was burning out of control Wednesday in the North Sea, and the Dutch coast guard said it was working to save the vessel from sinking close to an important habitat for migratory birds.
One crew member died and others were injured after the fire broke out on the ship that was heading from Bremerhaven in Germany to Singapore. The crew was evacuated in the early hours of Wednesday. The cause of the fire has not been established.
