Containership Solong Struck US Flagged Tanker Stena Immaculate

The drug war and financial hybrid war may have just kicked into a kinetic phase, with the ramming and explosive destruction of a US Department of Transportation tanker carrying jet fuel off the coast of Northeastern England. The US-flagged Stena Immaculate was at anchor off the coast of Hull when the Portuguese-flagged container ship, Solong slammed into it. The incident is being investigated by the UK's Marine Accident Investigation Branch.
