3 km from Harwich, Essex, Great Britain

Collapsed cranes at the Port of Felixstowe
Collapsed cranes at the Port of Felixstowe
In high winds last night this Chinese vessel broke her moorings and crashed into the gantry cranes on Landguard Terminal. Two cranes lie in a heap and are clearly beyond repair. Ironically, the vessel's cargo was cranes, and these are now stuck under the remaining gantries. LinkExternal link
