An international report indicates that a Liberian-flagged container ship, chartered by the Israeli company Zim, sustained severe damage and subsequently sank in the Black Sea on Wednesday, October 28. The attack occurred within Bulgaria's exclusive economic zone, outside its territorial waters. Bulgarian authorities announced the sinking on Thursday. The ship's crew of 14 Filipinos and four Ukrainians were successfully evacuated and transported to the Bulgarian city of Varna for medical examinations. The identity of the group responsible for the drone attack remains unknown.
The vessel was carrying 421 containers, including hazardous materials such as lithium-ion batteries, corrosive substances, acids, and industrial components. Initial Bulgarian assessments have not detected significant marine pollution resulting from the sinking. Zim confirmed that it had chartered the vessel, which it does not own, and that its owners had reported all crew members safe. The company is monitoring damage assessments and working to secure a replacement vessel to maintain its services.
This incident is part of a series of attacks targeting commercial vessels in the Black Sea during October. These attacks have heightened concerns about the impact of the Russia-Ukraine war on maritime navigation security. No group has yet claimed responsibility for the attack on this specific ship.
