Cargo ship and oil tanker ablaze after North Sea collisionA massive rescue operation is underway after an oil tanker and a cargo ship collided in the North Sea off the East Yorkshire coast on Monday, sparking a massive fire and injuring 32 people.According to the BBC, the incident occurred near the Humber Estuary, with HM Coastguard receiving the alert at 09.48 GMT.

"It's too far out for us to see - about 10 miles - but we have seen the vessels bringing them in. They must have sent a mayday out - luckily there was a crew transfer vessel out there already," Boyers said. The casualties' conditions remain unclear," he added.The UK Coastguard is leading the rescue operation following "reports of a collision between a tanker and cargo vessel off the coast of East Yorkshire", a spokesperson told AFP.

The Stena Immaculate, a 600-foot long oil tanker, was anchored in the North Sea when it was struck by a container ship called the Solong, according to Crowley, the Florida-based company that manages the tanker. The collision caused a cargo tank containing jet fuel to be ruptured and “fuel was reported released,” the company said in a statement. “The Stena Immaculate crew abandoned the vessel following multiple explosions onboard,” it said, adding that “all Crowley mariners are safe.”Ernst Russ, a Hamburg-based shipping company that owns the Solong, said in a statement that both ships had sustained serious damage and that one of its 14 crew members was missing.
