Several men hired by an international organised crime group in Dubai to crew the bulk carrier 'Matthew' (IMOI: 9228150) were under financial pressure and succumbed to the temptation to earn thousands, the Special Criminal Court in Dublin has heard. Eight men admitted their roles in trying to smuggle cocaine worth over 157 million euros. The Irish Army Ranger Wing has been praised in court for putting their lives at risk when they boarded the vessel in severe weather conditions while the crew attempted to steer the ship to high seas. Six of the men arrested on board the 'Matthew' had ignored repeated warnings from the patrol vessel 'LE William Butler Yeats '. Two other men were rescued from a boat that was bought in Castletownbere, which had been purchased to collect drugs from the main vessel. The Ukrainians Mykhailo Gavryk and Vitaliy Vlasoi, both 32; Iranians Soheil Jelveh and Saeid Hassani, 39; Filipino Harold Estoesta, 31, and Dutch national Cumali Ozgen, 49, all pleaded guilty to possession of cocaine for sale or supply on board the 'Mathew' betweenSep 24 and 26, 2023. Ukrainian national Vitaliy Lapa, aged 62, with an address at Rudenka, Repina Str in Berdyansk, pleaded guilty to attempting to possess cocaine for sale or supply between Sep 21 and 25. Jamie Harbron, aged 31, of South Avenue, Billingham in the UK, also pleaded guilty that on a date between Sep 21 and 25, both dates inclusive, he attempted to have cocaine in his possession for the purpose of sale or supply, an offence under the Misuse of Drugs Act. Colman Cody SC, counsel for Lapa, told the sentence hearing that his client was not aware of the full scale of the operation and did not fully understand it or the structures of the criminal organisation. The married father-of-two was told he would be paid 5,000 euros for his involvement in the operation. Lapa had been in the merchant navy and had previously worked on fishing boats. He had recently retired and was a pensioner in Ukraine. The Detective Superintendent Keith Halley agreed that Lapa was at the lower end of the structure. Estoesta was the second officer on board the vessel, who said he had met some of the crew in Venezuela. The court heard how some members of the hired crew were distracted at night while those from the criminal enterprise had loaded some of the cargo containing drugs on to the vessel. They claimed that they had been entertained with alcohol while the so-called spare parts were being transferred onto the ship. Estoesta admitted he was concerned it was more than spare parts, as he saw armed men on the other ship, which was offloading the large cargo. He said he didn't argue as he was terrified and was alone in the ocean. He thought the cargo may have contained contraband, like weapons or cigarettes. His barrister, Michael Hourigan, said that he had a genuine fear of the consequences if he did not follow orders. Vlasoi, a 33-year-old sailor, became involved in the operation after he was contacted when he posted his sailing credentials online. The court heard that he is married with a five-year-old child, who is now living in Ireland with the accused's mother. Paul O'Higgins SC for Vlasoi told the court that his client's realisation of the situation came too late when he discovered that the enterprise was being run at a higher level by people not on the ship. He told gardai that there were outside forces in control. He was told he would be paid 5,000 euros for his part in the operation. Mr O'Higgins said that his client found himself in a vulnerable financial position as he tried to provide for his family during the war in Ukraine. Hassani, the 3ird officer of the bulk carrier, qualified from maritime college in 2009 and had been at sea constantly for over a decade. Mark Lyam SC, for the 40-year-old, told the court he is married with a six-year-old daughter, and that he had financial responsibility to provide for his family, including medical care. Mr Lyam said he succumbed to temptation because of that financial pressure and wanting to spend more time with his family. The court was also told that he sent a text to someone in Dubai thanking them for the opportunity. Hassani, who was airlifted from the boat, was described as being the lowest rank in terms of officers. Meanwhile, Michael O'Higgins SC, counsel for Harbron, described his client as a drug abuser who was induced into the operation to clear a drug debt. Described as being a last-minute entry into the enterprise, he was offered a 10,000 euro reduction on his drug debt of 20,000 euros. The court heard how Harbron, who was on board the second ship, the 'Castlemore', had no sailing experience, was not able to operate the radio and was not able to locate the life vest on board. Mr O'Higgins said he had no role in organising, financing or giving directions. Harbron suspected the cargo on board the 'Matthew' was drugs, but he said he was shocked when he saw the size of it. Brendan Grehan SC, counsel for Dutch national Ozgen, admitted to having loaded three crates of drugs onto the vessel and also played a part in trying to burn drugs by getting paint thinners. He said he expected to earn a bonus of between 50,000 euros and 100,000 euros. Mr Grehan said that Ozgen, who had no sailing experience, has a son with a serious health issue following an operation on a brain tumour, and it was partly the attraction in terms of getting involved in that he would get money to help (his son) out. He was involved in a misguided attempt to get money for his family. Keivon Sotoodeh, junior counsel for Jelveh, told the court that his client is a 51-year-old with two adult children. Mr Sotoodeh said Jelveh was simply following orders and accepts he got himself involved in this. The matter has been put back to July 4. The men have been remanded on the same terms and conditions.

On the late evening of June 4, the 'Ali Aykin' was refloated and berthed in Malmö on June 5 shortly after midnight. The ship reached the port with own power, assisted by tugs and monitored by ships from the Swedish Coast Guard. The transit to the port took two hours in good conditions No oil spills were observed neither during the salvage nor during the way to Malmö. The successful salvage was the result of the close and intensive cooperation between several authorities and private actors. The environmental threat in the Sound has been eliminated with joint efforts. The preliminary investigation into gross negligence in maritime traffic is being led by prosecutors and is still ongoing. One person on the crew has been served with a suspicion and is being detained. The work to prevent oil spills from the other grounded ship, the 'Meshka' was continued off Landskrona. The situation there was desciribed as complex but under control, and measures were being taken to minimize the risk of environmental impact by the Coast Guard. The 'Meshka' has approximately 938 metric tons of oil in fuel and lubricating oil in its tanks. The authority has vessels on site with the ability to combat oil spills.

The Greenlandic hybrid ferry 'Maliina Ittuk', while sailing in Danish waters before the planned departure to Greenland, has been hit by technical problems which were observed with a generator in one of the ferry's engines.. The vessel is being repaired at the Orskov Shipyard shipyard in Frederikshaven since May 10, 2025. The Orskov Yard is currently conducting a thorough technical examination of the ferry, including repair of the affected engine and a full review of the remaining three engines. To ensure stable operations in June and July, the Disko Line has initiated a temporary reassignment of its vessels, so that the planned sailings during this period can be carried out as planned. There was no date when the 'Maliina Ittuk', which left the yard in Faaborg on March 31, will be able to set sail.

On Sep 24, 2023, the Rosslare RNLI volunteers were mobilised at around 11.30 p.m. to the 'Castlemore', which had grounded off Wexford with two crew on board. They unsuccessfully tried to fire a towline towards the trawler to pull it back into open waters, but with conditions extremely choppy and only two crew aboard, it proved too difficult. At that point, the wind also posed too much of a danger to try to winch the two sailors on board a rescue helicopter. At around 3 a.m. the Irish Navy vessel 'LÉ William Butler Yeats' arrived on scene and kept a close eye on proceedings. Having circled for hours, the Rescue 117 was forced to return to base in Waterford to refuel around half an hour later, but by 4.30 a.m. they were back on scene. By this time, the wind had subsided somewhat and the helicopter crew was able to successfully winch the sailors,. Both the lifeboat and the rescue helicopter left the scene shortly after 6 a.m., while the 'LÉ William Butler Yeats' remained off the Wexford coast overnight.

The service of the 'Møkstrafjord' on the Lyse Fjord between Krokeide and Hufthammar had to be suspended on June 5, 2025, by the operator Fjord1 until further notice due to a problem with the thruster that was preventing the ferry from operating. A spare part has been ordered for a repairs of the damage.

The 'AIDAluna', during its 19-day "Highlights at the Arctic Circle" voyage, after setting off from Longyearbyen on June 3, 2025, was notified at around 11 p.m. that a ship was experiencing an emergency near their positiom. Since the 'AIDAluna' was in close proximity, it was activated to provide assistance and set course for the scene. The captain informed the guests via an announcement about the course change and the situation. A helicopter was also requested. The helicopter initially assessed the situation to better assess the next steps. It had to be clarified whether the people could be rescued by helicopter or whether tender boats would have to be sent from the 'AIDAluna'. The crew of the cruise ship was ready for the possible lowering of the tender boats. The medical personnel were also on alert for a possible deployment. The crew of the 'AIDAluna' received notification shortly afterwards that, given the circumstances, the people had been safely rescued by helicopter from the life raft in which they were floating and would be flown to the hospital in Longyearbyen for treatment. The 'AIDAluna' was thus released from the rescue mission and was able to continue its journey, being expected in Akureyri on June 6.

The salvage of the 'Bayesian' continues with minimal diving work, while ROVs are being used as much as possible. The equipment is also being used to search the seabed in the wider area for parts of the yacht. This was chosen after the fatal accident with a diver from Smit Salvage. New and specialised equipment has arrived in Sicily almost daily from all over Europe in recent weeks, together with new members of the salvage team to enable the alternative working methods. This specifically involved remote-controlled tools. The salvors from Hebo and Smit with the TMC Marine, as the main contractor are now busy pulling thin lines under the hull to which the heavy lifting straps will later be attached. Four of the eight 'forelines' have now been installed. The main boom, the sail, an anchor and other parts of the rigging were already salvaged two weeks ago. The installation of the lines is difficult due to the clay bottom on which the ship is resting. It is expected that the hull can be raised above water in the second half of June,after the 72-metre mast has been removed using precision cutting tools, which is a month later than the original planning.

After the US Coast Guard's 17 th District command center received a distress alert from the 'Morning Midas' on June 3 at approximately 3:15 p.m., the watchstanders immediately issued an Urgent Marine Information Broadcast requesting assistance from vessels in the vicinity and also diverted the Coast Guard Cutter 'Munro (WMSL 755)' to the area, directed the launch of a C-130J Super Hercules aircrew from the Air Station Kodiak, and positioned an MH-60T Jayhawk helicopter in Adak. All 22 crew members aboard the 'Morning Midas' evacuated the ship aboard a lifeboat and were subsequently rescued by the crew of the container m/v 'Cosco Hellas' (IMO: 9308510), en route from Balboa to Busan, one of the three good Samaritan vessels on scene, with no reported injuries. The Coast Guard crews were working closely with the vessel’s managing company, the Zodiac Maritime, to determine the disposition of the vessel, which was estimated to have approximately 350 metric tons of gas fuel and 1,530 metric tons of very low sulfur fuel oil (VLSFO) onboard as well as a cargo of 3,048 vehicles, with 70 being fully electric vehicles and 681 being partial hybrid. The status of the fire was currently unknown, but smoke was still emanating from the vessel.

Due to a major power outage which hit Nynäshamn on June 4, 2025, passengers who were supposed to travel between Nynäshamn and Visby had to wait for almost an hour in Helagotland before the 'Gotland' could leave the port. The power outage i meant that the gangway for pedestrian passengers could not be unloaded. The ship therefore did not leave Nynäshamn on time. The ferry, which was supposed to arrive in Visby at 3:00 p.m., arrived at the port with a delay.

On the morning of June 3, work began on salvaging the 'Ali Aykin', which has been aground in southern Öresund, near Klagshamn, in pos. 55° 32' N 012° 46' E since the night of May 25, when it got stuck while sailing north into the Öre Sound. The salvage was being supervised by the Swedish Coast To make the ship lighter, parts of the scrap cargo were being unloaded onto an adjacent barge with the dredger 'Sound Neptunus' (MMSI: 265799920). The patrol ships 'KBV 034' and 'KBV 312' were located nearby, ready to intervene in the event of a possible oil spill. Additional equipment was on the way. The salvage plan was approved on June 2, after the Coast Guard and the Swedish Transport Agency assessed that the risks of the salvage work were now at an acceptable level. It was still unclear when the ship can be refloated. After the salvage, the ship must be taken to port for further inspections before the Swedish Transport Agency may allow to proceed on its voyage or carry out repairs at a shipyard.´ Report with photo: https://www.sjofartstidningen.se/nu-bargas-grundstotta-fartyget/

The Prosecutor General of Ukraine has filed papers in court seeking to hold the Russian captain of the 'Volgoneft 212', who is responsible for the oil pollution resulting from the loss of the vessel in the Kerch Strait in the latest in a series of efforts launched by Ukraine attempting to prosecute mariners for their role in the incidents or for operating vessels transporting grain and other materials in the Russian-occupied regions. Ukraine is charging the captain with spilling 1,500 tons of fuel as part of a larger oil leak from the tanker in Ukrainian waters. Ukraine estimated the damages at $480 million in the court papers: “The suspect, contrary to the usual seafaring requirements, did not take into account the weather conditions in the waters of the Azov and Black Seas, as well as in the Kerch Strait, which led to the accident," the prosecutor charged. The vessel was transporting 4,000 tonnes of M-100 fuel from Volgograd to Kavkaz and was accused that the fuel was to be transferred to an ocean-going shadow fleet tanker. Ukraine reported that oil was drifting ashore at various points in the Black Sea prompting a large-scale cleanup in the winter after the incident. In the past, Ukraine has detained and sought to prosecute crews for entering the ports of occupied Crimea and transporting grain or other materials that it alleges were stolen from Ukraine. In the summer of 2024, they seized the cargo ship 'Usko Mfu', registered in Cameroon, near the port of Reni on the Danube. The courts ordered the vessel seized. In fall 2024, Ukraine reported it was prosecuting the ship’s officers for entering Sevastopol. In April 2025, Ukraine reported seizing another cargo vessel they accursed of looting grain from Crimea. In the current case, it is unclear if the prosecutor named a specific individual. Clearly, the captain would have been charged in absentia and it is unclear if they were also attempting to file charges against the owner of the Volgoneft tankers.

On Jue 4, 2025, at 12:42 p.m., the 'Ijsseldelta', eroute towards Meppen, allided with a bridge over the Dortmund-Ems Canal in Lingen. The stilt at the starboard side foreship should have been retracted at the bridge. However, for unexplained reasons this did not happen. The following allision caused a main girder to collapse and crack. The police initially feared a possible risk of collapse on the bridge Car and ship traffic in the area of ​​the bridge was halted. On the evening, ships were sailing again on the Dortmund-Ems Canal. The bridge will remain closed to road traffic until at least Juen 5. A simple repair was not possible. A final assessment, however, will only be made in the next few days. The accident, in which no one was injured, caused property damage amounting to millions of euros. The vessel was first thoroughly examined by the waterway police at the New Harbour in Lingen and was then able to continue its journey to the refinery harbour in Lingen-Holthausen, where it moored. The bridge crosses the Dortmund-Ems Canal in the immediate vicinity of the Emsland Arena. It has no supporting pillars. Footpaths on the right and left banks lead under the bridge. A detour past the Emsland Arena has been set up for motorists and pedestrians.
