The 4433 dwt freighter Baccara collided with the canal ferry Breslau at Brunsbuettel in the Kiel Canal.   Reports state that one of the vessels was forced to do an evasive manoever causing the collision.   The Baccara suffered no damage while the Breslau suffered some damage to the hull and upper deck.   No injuries on either vessel.   The Baccara was sailing to Rotterdam from Klaipeda with a cargo of liquid fertilizer and grain.
