There are at least 32 casualties following a collision between a tanker and a cargo ship in the North Sea, but some crew members are yet to be accounted for, a port boss has said.
Martyn Boyers, chief executive of the Port of Grimsby East, said he had been told there was “a massive fireball”, adding: “It’s too far out for us to see – about ten miles – but we have seen the vessels bringing them [the casualties] in".
The conditions of the casualties are unclear.
