Container ship ran aground in Southampton

The 'CMA CGM Pelleas' came at close quarters with a wall before running aground as it left its berth in Southampton on April 9, 2025. The vessel too took a direct path towards the wall in front of waterside flats off Marchwood. After it beached briefly, tugs assisted the vessel and pulled it off again. The ship then docked in Southampton and is due in Rotterdam at the weekend. The Associated British Ports (ABP), the city's port owners, will play a role in any subsequent review of the incident. The matter had been referred to the Marine Accident Investigation Branch (MAIB). Report with photo: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c4g33y0dkngo
