The first of three salvage teams arrived at the location of the 'Morning Midas' around 220 miles south of Adak Island, Alaska, on June 11. But, apart from watching the burning hull from the tug 'Gretchen Dunlap', there was little they can do. Operated by Fort Lauderdale-based Resolve Marine, the vessel was the first of three tugs due on scene as the Zodiac Maritime car carrier drifed northeast at about two nautical miles per hour. It will be several more days before the second tug arrives and more than a week until the third reaches the scene. As lithium-ion battery fires generate a range of toxic gases, the tug teams will have to remain to windward of the vessel. The fire could eventually burn itself out, allowing a tug or tugs to take the hulk in tow. A more likely scenario, however, is that burnt-out components within the vessel shift, causing a list, and eventually the car carrier sinks. The ship was laden with 3,048 cars including 70 fully electric cars and 861 hybrids. If the vessel sinks, there is a significant pollution risk. The 'Morning Midas' has more than 300 tonnes of marine gasoil on board, and about 1,500 tonnes or very low sulphur fuel oil in its tanks.

The 'Aratere' broke down on its way to Wellington on the night of June 11. The ferry left Picton at about 8.50 p.m., but then experienced an issue with its propulsion drive. Seven commercial vehicle drivers and four foot passengers were on board the ferry while it was anchored for hours, waiting for a specialist electrician to arrive. The issue was fixed at about 1 a.m.. and the vessel resumed its trip to Wellington, with a new ETA as of June 12, 5 a.m. Kiwirail had to cancel the 6.15 a.m. departure from Wellington to Picton and the 11.00 a.m. crossing from Picton to Wellington and also the 4 p.m. sailing, as the search for the cause of the problem was continued. Interislander's customer service teams were amending bookings due to these cancellations. All affected customers were offered an alternative sailing. If the alternative sailing was not suitable, passengers could reschedule for no additional cost.

A Division Bench of the High Court has directed the Vizhinjam Port Authority to detain the 'MSC Manasa F' in Vizhinjam on June 12, 2025. The directive came in response to a petition filed by the Cashew Export Promotion Council. The petition stated that the sunken 'MSC Elsa 3' was supposed to reach Vizhinjam with a cashew cargo on board, alleging a loss of ₹6 crore due to the accident. The court ordered the detention of the 'MSC Manasa F' and that the ship will be released upon presentation of a demand draft of ₹6 crore to the court. The High Court will reconsider the petition on June 12 at 1:45 p.m..

The captain the 'Hong Tai 58' has been sentenced to three years in prison for severing the Taiwan-Penghu No. 3 submarine cable linking Taiwan and Penghu. On June 12, Tainan District Court found the Chinese captain, surnamed Wang (王), guilty of breaching Article 72 of the Telecommunications Management Act and sentenced him to a fixed term of three years, per CNA. The Taiwan-Penghu No. 3 submarine cable, maintained by Chunghwa Telecom, lies 5 nautical miles (9.26 km) off the coast of Tainan's Beimen District. The 'Hong Tai 58’s electronic nautical charts marked the cable's location, while the area was publicly designated as a no-anchoring zone due to the presence of critical infrastructure. After entering the restricted zone on Feb 22 between 9:30 p.m. and Feb 25 at 3 a.m., Wang instructed two crew members, surnamed Chin (秦) and Chang (張), to release six shackles of anchor chain (approximately 160 meters) and the anchor into the sea. However, the anchor did not settle properly on the seabed. The vessel subsequently drifted in a zigzag pattern on the surface, causing the cable to snap completely, disrupting telecommunications services. Wang admitted to ordering the crew to drop anchor but denied intentionally damaging the cable, claiming it was negligence. The court, however, concluded that Wang had willfully anchored in a prohibited zone and allowed the vessel to drift, leading to the cable being dragged and severed. Chunghwa Telecom incurred more than NT$17 million (US$5.78 million) in repair costs and over NT$1.8 million in shipping agency service fees. Following the incident, Wang was detained incommunicado. The Tainan District Prosecutors Office concluded its investigation and indicted him on April 11. The case was then transferred to Tainan District Court, which upheld his detention. Seven other crew members were not indicted due to insufficient evidence and were deported.

The Director General of Shipping has issued a formal notice to the MSC Ship Management for gross negligence in salvage operations of the 'MSC Elsa 3' off the Kochi coast and imminent threat to the marine environment and the coast line. The progress made in this operation was grossly inadequate and continued to fall short of the timelines and operational commitments previously provided by the owners and salvors. Should the extraction of oil not commence within next 48 hours, the government shall be left with no alternative but examine all avenues against the ship owners and salvors under applicable Indian legislation for the continuing threat posed to Indian waters and the coastal environment, a notice said. Despite repeated instructions and coordination meetings, the response from salvors has been consistently delayed and insufficient. The lack of prompt action has resulted in a continued and serious risk to marine environment and coastline, particularly affecting Kerala’s coastal region. The local communities in the region have already suffered extensive loss of work and income due to the prolonged presence of the sunken vessel, floating debris, oil sheen and ongoing pollution risks. The salvors not only delayed the required diving support vessel and personnel, but also failed to file visa applications for saturation divers from 11 countries, even after the Indian government facilitated diplomatic support for their clearance. The vessel, which lies at the depth of 51 metres, requires saturation diving for oil recovery. However, only limited air diving has been conducted so far, insufficient for the safe and complete extraction of oil trapped in the tanks. Capping of vents was still being conducted at present. The extraction of oil, originally scheduled to commence around June 5, has not even begun as of this date. The Directorate General of Shipping placed the owners and salvors on formal notice that any further delay beyond the specified period will be treated as wilful and deliberate noncompliance, and the government shall proceed to exercise its full legal rights and remedies without further reference. A Division Bench of the High Court has directed the Vizhinjam Port Authority to detain another MSC vessel, the 'MSC Manasa F'. The directive came in response to a petition filed by the Cashew Export Promotion Council. The petition stated that the 'MSC Elsa 3' was supposed to reach Vizhinjam with a cashew cargo on board, alleging a loss of ₹6 crore due to the accident. The court ordered the detention of the 'MSC Manasa F' and that the ship will be released upon presentation of a demand draft of ₹6 crore to the court. The High Court will reconsider the petition on June 12 at 1:45 p.m..

The Port of Hodeidah in western Yemen in areas controlled by the Houthi militants resumed operations late on July 23, 2024, after the Israeli strikes on July 20. Several military targets were hit in the port city. The strike was in retaliation for hundreds of attacks carried out against the state of Israel in recent months. Oil storage facilities havebeen hit, as well as a power plant. The Ministry of Health said that 80 people were wounded in a preliminary toll of the strikes, most of them with severe burns. Other health officials said the strikes killed a number of people and wounded others, but didn't elaborate. Reports indicated significant damage in parts of the port while Houthi officials insisted that the port is now operating normally. Two ships arrived at the port. Both vessels were coming from Djibouti. Records indicated the 'Brother 1' and 'Marsa Zenith' are each managed by companies based in Dubai.At least three of the port’s cranes were damaged and not operational. Five port cranes were reported to be operating. There are also unconfirmed reports of damage to the port’s warehouses.
