A cargo ship crashed into one of two main supports for the 2.5km long bridge at around 1:30AM EDT.

There is an ongoing search and rescue effort and authorities are looking for upwards of seven people.

    Thanks for replying. I’m looking at it from the perspective of proximity to critical infrastructure, but your reply makes plenty of sense. It does make incidents like this more a case of when and not if.

    I’m not from the region (let alone the same country) but I would think this is going to have a significant impact on the port operations, assuming it can continue to operate.
