Tuapse
Smoke has been observed at the port of Tuapse after explosions were reported overnight on Nov 29, 2024. Reports suggested that a large Russian landing ship may have been damaged. Smoke was rising from one of the berths, which is equipped with cranes for loading civilian vessels. Satellite images from SentinelHub on Nov 20 revealed a 135-meter-long vessel docked there, potentially a large landing ship, matching the class of Russian warships known as Project 11711 Ivan Gren. Currently, there is only one such ship in the Black Sea, the 'Pyotr Morgunov' from Russia's Northern Fleet.
Yuzhny
Russia’s Defense Ministry showed footage of a Russian Iskander-M missile attacking the cargo ship 'Paresa' 4860 gt (IMO: 9008134) at the port of Yuzhny on Oct 6, 2024, a vessel Russian officials claimed was carrying ammunition from Europe. The Saint Kitts and Nevis-flagged general cargo vessel suffered a direct strike with a significant explosion. To date, no injuries have been reported. British maritime security consultants Ambrey assessed this attack as a further escalation, with vessels calling at Ukraine being at heightened risk of direct attack by Russian forces. Ambrey also assessed it as plausible that Ukraine may retaliate; therefore, vessels calling at Russian Black Sea ports are also assessed to be at heightened risk of physical damage. Having gone all year without any merchant ships coming under attack, the strike marked the third commercial vessel to be hit by Russian forces in the Black Sea in less than a month.

Singapore
A 37-year-old forklift driver was hospitalized after a stack of containers toppled onto his vehicle at Singapore’s Pasir Panjang Terminal on Nov 25, 2024, at around 6:40 a.m. at the terminal’s older facility. The accident happened when the forklift, operated by the 37-year-old man, was moving a container. As the forklift reversed, a column of five stacked containers became unstable and collapsed. The top container fell directly onto the forklift’s cabin, tilting it backwards and causing the driver to fall to the ground. The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) was informed about the incident at 6:55 a.m. Emergency responders quickly arrived on-site and transferred the conscious worker to the National University Hospital, where he was reported to be in stable condition. The Malaysian national had suffered lacerations to his head and body. The Ministry of Manpower (MOM) has launched an investigation into the incident. It has instructed PSA Singapore, the terminal operator, to suspend all empty container-handling activities at Pasir Panjang Terminal. Along with the suspension, the Ministry ordered a “safety time-out” at the terminal, meaning PSA Singapore must pause its daily operations to review workplace safety protocols and operations. The company has promised to cooperate with the investigation and take the necessary steps to improve safety at the terminal.

Kiel
The Port of Kiel and AIDA Cruises are jointly celebrating the 100th cruise ship call this year to be supplied with shore power as the 'AIDAnova' docked at the Ostseekai Cruise Terminal on Sep 25, 2024. Dr Dirk Claus, the MD of the Port of Kiel, highlighted that Kiel had defined 100 shore power supplies to cruise ships as its benchmark for this year. Now this goal has been fulfilled ahead of schedule and ahead of the season’s close. Almost 70% of all ocean cruise ship calls handled at Kiel this year will make use of shore power supply. While the majority of supplies conducted in recent years accounted for tests and preparations, Kiel has now achieved 85% of the connections accounting for regular supplies - with just a 15% share remaining for tests of further ships wanting to take shore power. According to the Port of Kiel, ships wanting to take shore power usually need between one and three 'trial calls' for tests and preparations before regular supplies can start. During recent years, 22 ships have passed respective testing at Kiel, and 2024 alone saw another ten ships being integrated. Out of this year's shore power supplies, about one third have taken place at Ostuferhafen which saw its facility going into regular operation this spring. Here, among others MSC Euribia and Costa Diadema receive shore power regularly. Up to and including 2025, the Port of Kiel will have invested €55m into its shore power facilities. The port supplies its customers entirely with 'green shore power' purchased on the spot market according to demand. Out of the 100 cruise ship calls supplied with green shore power this year, Carnival Corporation accounts for 54 - out of which 41 calls are AIDA Cruises ships. Felix Eichhorn, President of AIDA Cruises, outlined the mutually beneficial cooperation between the Port of Kiel and AIDA Cruises commenting that Kiel had recognized the potential of shore power supply early on and made corresponding investments. Eichhorn said the milestone call was the result of joint, collaborative efforts to make cruising more sustainable. German ports - with Kiel at the top – have takn a leading position in onshore power supply for cruise vessels. While shore power is increasingly turning into a standard in Germany's cruise hubs, according to recent CLIA figures, only 35 cruise ports worldwide have the facilities in place to offer shore power at present.

The ship arrived in the port at around 11 p.m. The KNRM lifeboat 'Antoinette' from Stellendam has assisted on scene, relieving the 'Koos van Messel', which had been dispatched from Hoek van Holland..

Tianjin
On Nov 18, 2024,, at 2 p.m. LT, a fire broke out aboard the accomodation ship 'Orient Princess' (IMO: 6708109) in Tianjin,. Emergency responders quickly arrived at the scene and put out the fire by 3:00 p.m. The blaze was caused by sparks that ignited insulation material during ongoing renovation work on the vessel. The 'Orient Express' was formerly known as cruise ship "Yao Hua." However, due to legal complications,it was seized by authorities in 2003. Another Chinese company subsequently took over the ship and converted it to an accommodation vessel, mooring it permanently in the Haihe Bund Park, Binhai New Area, Tianjin City, as a tourist attraction.
