The captain was unable to taxi into the narrow passage between the bridge spans; the ship crashed into one of its foundations.





On February 22, in the south of China in Guangzhou, a container ship failed to pass under a bridge and collapsed part of its floors.



Cars that were on the bridge at that moment were hit. Some slid onto the ship, others fell into the water. According to preliminary information, we are talking about a bus, three cars and an electric bike.



It is known that as a result of the incident there were dead and injured:

“According to the latest report, as a result of the incident, two people were killed, one was injured, and three were missing,” Izvestia quoted CGTN reporters as saying.



It also clarifies that rescuers managed to pull two people out of the water, but work at the emergency site continues, and the exact number of victims is still unknown.
