Washington (AFP) - Diverted cargo and supply chain disruptions have left businesses rushing to avoid an economic hit following the collapse of a major bridge in Baltimore after it was hit by a cargo ship. With vessel traffic at the Port of Baltimore suspended until further notice since Tuesday's accident, experts warn of knock-on effects but say these should be manageable in the near term. Baltimore is the biggest vehicle-handling port in the country, including cars and heavy farm equipment, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg told a press briefing. He estimates there is between $100 and $...

The accident happened on the A9 highway near Leipzig at about 9:45 am and the road was closed in both directions. It wasn't immediately clear why the bus, which was operated by Flixbus and was en route to Zurich after setting off from Berlin at 8 a.m., came off the road. Rescue helicopters and ambulances were at the scene. Police spokesman Olaf Hoppe told n-tv television that there were “numerous injured and at least five dead.” Flixbus said there were 53 passengers and two drivers on board. The company said it was working closely with local authorities and rescue services and would do everyth...

All six workers missing after a Baltimore bridge collapsed on Tuesday are presumed dead, and the search for them postponed until Wednesday morning. According to the authorities, the operation has shifted from search and rescue to search and recovery. On Tuesday, a 300-metre-long container ship struck one of the Francis Scott Key Bridge supports, causing the span to break and fall into the water within seconds. Two people were retrieved alive from the waters under the bridge, one in serious condition. Baltimore bridge collapse sends authorities scrambling to rescue people from riverThe six peop...

Au lendemain de l’effondrement du pont Francis Scott Key à Baltimore, les secours, mobilisés depuis plusieurs heures, ont annoncé suspendre leurs recherches. Six personnes portées disparues sont présumées mortes. Il s’agit d’ouvriers qui effectuaient des travaux sur l’édifice avant la catastrophe. Mais à ce stade, les chances de les retrouver vivants sont quasi-nulles. "Compte tenu de la durée des recherches, des efforts considérables que nous avons déployés, de la température de l'eau, nous ne pensons pas, à ce stade, que nous allons trouver un seul de ces individus encore en vie", explique l...

Baltimore (AFP) - Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge, named after the poet who penned the lyrics to the US national anthem, used to carry around 34,000 vehicles a day across one of the busiest harbors in the United States. Its nighttime collapse, within seconds of being struck by a container ship, is likely to cause major economic damage for as long as it continues to block shipping in the Port of Baltimore. The bridge's dramatic destruction shut the port for maritime traffic, which last year accounted for more than 52 million tons of foreign cargo, worth some $80 billion, according to a rec...

Baltimore (AFP) - With a huge, runaway cargo ship bearing down on one of Baltimore harbor's busiest bridges, local police had just moments to react to a last-ditch Mayday call from its crew. Stopping the drifting container ship Dali was impossible. But officers could still try to prevent drivers from heading into what was about to become a death trap. "Hold all traffic on the Key Bridge. There’s a ship approaching that's just lost their steering, so until they get that under control, we've got to stop all traffic," an officer can be heard saying in police radio excerpts published by Broadcasti...

Washington (AFP) - Conspiracy theorists said Tuesday that the Baltimore bridge collapse resulted from an intentional attack -- despite officials quickly saying there was no evidence of foul play. Hours after a container ship struck the Francis Scott Key Bridge, sending vehicles and people plunging into the US city's frigid harbor, users across X and other platforms blamed everything from terrorists to Israel. Among the most widespread posts came from influencer Andrew Tate, who told his nine million followers on X that the 300-meter vessel "was cyber-attacked." "Lights go off and it deliberate...
