This is what the #FSOSafer looks like today. For years, its status was unknown.
Now, marine salvage experts from @beleefboskalis have boarded the ship & testing and inspections continue to assess the vessel's state.
Another step forward in @UN-led operation to #StopRedSeaSpill
This morning Boskalis’ vessel Ndeavor left Djibouti and set sail for Yemen where it will be deployed for the FSO Safer oil transfer operation. Upon arrival at the FSO Safer, the next phase of the salvage operation will commence. Further updates to follow. https://t.co/uDn8Wk2Lgo

#OTD in 1977: Tenerife Disaster. KLM Flight 4805 and Pan Am Flight 1736, two B-747 Jumbos, collide on the runway at Los Rodeos Airport (Canary Islands Spain). 583 perished: all 248 on the KLM and 335 on PAA, where 61 survived. It remains the deadliest crash in aviation history.
Hierbij een indruk van hoe de evacuatie van de bemanningsleden van het stuurloze schip ging. Hierbij werden meerdere SAR-helikopters @NhvHelicopters en 1 helikopter vd Belgische Kustwacht @agentschapMDK ingezet.
