Open-sources have reported that a containership was struck by two Unmanned Aerial Vehicles whilst transiting the Black Sea, approximately 130 nautical miles from Novorossiysk, off Romania (exact time not specified, approximate position). The vessel operated by Fesco, a division of Rosatom, was on route to Novorossiysk, Russia, having departed from India as part of Fesco's regular container service. A Turkish-owned containership responded to the incident and successfully rescued 16 of the 17 crewmembers. Russia's Black Sea Fleet's naval aviation unit dispatched a helicopter, which located and recovered the missing seafarer, who was reported to be in good condition. Open-sources have reported that the vessel has sunk.
