Terrifying moment ship crashes into fishing boat as crew desperately cling on

Footage circulating from near Singapore shows a cargo ship colliding with a fishing boat, tilting the vessel as debris spread across the sea. The incident occurred Sunday in the Singapore Strait, one of the world’s busiest maritime routes. The 750-foot bulk carrier, flying the Panamanian flag, appeared to drift off course before striking the smaller 160-foot fishing boat; witnesses shouted just moments before impact. In one angle, fishermen are seen clinging to railings as the ship lists at about a 45-degree angle and parts of the deck submerge. It remains unclear whether the fishing boat reached shore or sank, and there has been no confirmation of casualties. Singapore’s Maritime and Port Authority had not issued a statement, and investigators are expected to review navigation records, tracking data, and crew testimony. The collision comes two days after another video showed a Chinese warship ramming a Filipino fishing vessel in the South China Sea.
