Seba M

The 130 meter long, 11680 dwt freighter Seba M went aground in the Azov Sea port of Mariupol, Ukraine.  The Seba M was entering the port and was pushed out of the navigation channel by ice.   The port tug was requested, but was unable to refloat the Seba M.  An ice breaker was dispatched but was not able to get close to the freighter due to the shallow water.  A towline was taken from the Seba M to the icebreaker and later pulled the freighter free.   No reports of injuries, damage or pollution being released.
