Satellite photos show ship that carried explosive cargo sunk at Beirut Port
Photos have emerged of the abandoned ship that transported the volatile cargo that exploded in the port of Beirut, Lebanon.
The New York Times has published satellite images of the submerged hull of the ship, the MV Rhosus, on the northern edge of the port.
According to the newspaper, the 86-metre-long single-deck vessel, flying a Moldovan flag and owned by Cyprus-based businessman Igor Grechushkin, began sinking in February 2018 after years of being stranded in the port.
