docked at the Htzootbahd warehouses in Haifa, on Aug 7, 2014,
during cargo unloading operations in the port.
The ship had come with srap metal from Ravenna.
Gasses in the hold were inflated. Crew and the dock workers
saw thick smoke and performed fire fighting immediately.
Five fire fighteing teams fought the fire from a letter with
foam jets. Also a tug with fire fighting equipment and a shore
brigade from the Haifa Port were engaged and supported the crews.
At noon, after about one hour, the fire was completely
extinguished without extension to other cargo holds.
There were several damages of the ship’s hull and to the
cargo itself.
One crew member broke his hand and had to be treated at the
Rambam Hospital.
After a first inspection it was estimated the vessel kept its
seaworthiness. The port authorities started an investigation of
the accident and carried out an inspection of the ship.
