Cargo ships in Dover Strait crash

Two Antiguan-flagged cargo ships collided off the Kent coast when one overtook the other.
Dover Coastguard said the accident between the Dealer and the Vindo happened 17 miles off Ramsgate, in the Dover Strait, at 0230 BST.

Watch manager Frank O’Neill said no pollution occurred and no-one was hurt, although both ships were damaged.

He said a coastguard tug was sent out as a precaution but the vessels were able to continue with their journeys.
