Abdullah
The 185 meter long, 45653 dwt bulk freighter Abdullah collided with the 178 meter long, 34070 dwt bulk freighter Fortune Cloud at the outer anchorage off Chittagong, Bangladesh. The Fortune Cloud had its hull bottom ruptured allowing water ingress into the engine room. The flooding could not be stopped and the Fortune Cloud sank until the vessel’s hull was resting on the seabed. The Abdullah also suffered hull damage. No reports of injuries or pollution released. A tugboat and naval vessel were dispatched to the scene to aid in the rescue efforts.
