TL;DR Summary

The FBI states that the Baltimore bridge collapse is not linked to terrorism, while Maersk, the company that chartered the container ship involved in the collision, operates a fleet of over 700 vessels and has faced challenges such as crew layoffs and suspension of transits due to attacks. The container ship, Dali, had been inspected 27 times since 2015 and had two deficiencies, with no crew members injured in the incident. Search and rescue operations are ongoing, with dive operations beginning, and one patient is being evaluated at the University of Maryland Medical Center. The ship was piloted by local pilots, and had been involved in a previous incident in Belgium in 2016.
