The vessel, deployed in the Asia-North Europe LP1 service, was reported to have sailed through rough weather conditions at the time of the incident and suffered extensive damage to the hull with water ingresses in some cargo holds.
The 26 crew members that evacuated the vessel were reported to have been safely rescued.
