A containership and warship have collided in Germany’s Kiel Canal.
German media said the incident on Wednesday morning involved Nordic Hamburg’s 1,036-teu Nordic Bremen (built 2011) and the naval frigate Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
The warship suffered a four-metre gash, while boxes were damaged on the merchant vessel, the Kieler Nachrichten website reported.
The boxship was en route from Rotterdam to Helsinki. It has now berthed in Kiel.
