Two accident involving 3 ships occurred at Kartal, Tuzla, Turkey, on Jun 16, both triggered by stormy wind. General cargo ship APRIL (either in lay-up or repairs) dragged anchor and started to drift towards shore, tugs took the ship under control just in time to avoid grounding.
Ro-ro HASAN SISIK (in lay-up or decommissioned) broke off her moorings and drifted onto berthed general cargo ship BORAS (reportedly decommissioned). Understood HASAN SISIK was taken back to her birth or to anchorage, it’s not clear. In both cases, no severe damages were mentioned, no injures.
