Dutch Cargo Ship Fire: Dutch authorities delay plan to tow burning cargo ship | Oneindia News
Fire erupted in the Fremantle Highway late Tuesday night near a chain of islands in the northern Netherlands and has been blazing ever since.
Salvage crews were preparing Saturday to tow a car-carrying cargo ship that has been burning for days to an anchor point in the North Sea after flames and smoke on board subsided.
The operation of moving the Fremantle Highway from the Dutch coast, a UNESCO World Heritage site for the aquatic and terrestrial species it hosts, and closer to the north of Schiermonnikoog island temporarily aims to avert an ecological disaster.
However, later on Saturday evening, authorities said the operation would likely be delayed by several days, having initially said they hoped to start over the weekend.
NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte has issued a stark warning about the growing threats of war, urging NATO member nations to prepare for emergencies and significantly increase defense spending. With rising tensions, particularly with Russia, Rutte emphasized the urgency of shifting to a wartime mindset and bolstering defense capabilities. In his call for action, he highlighted the strategic vulnerabilities of nations like the Netherlands, which is seen as a potential target due to its logistical importance. Is the world heading toward conflict? Watch this video for a detailed analysis of Rutte's dire warning and the future of NATO's security strategy.
