"Stranded: The Indian Crew's Ordeal After Baltimore Bridge Crash"

The 20 Indian crew members of the cargo ship Dali, which collided with a bridge in Baltimore, are still on the vessel, tending to daily tasks while officials work to clear the debris. The ship was en route to Sri Lanka with 4,700 containers when it lost power and struck the Francis Scott Key Bridge. The crew members are in good health, with one receiving stitches for a minor injury. It may take weeks to remove the debris and free the ship, and there is no exact timeline for extraction. Once investigations are complete, the crew may be swapped and sent home.

"Baltimore Bridge Collapse: Challenges and Cleanup Efforts"

The New York Times was allowed to ride aboard a U.S. Coast Guard boat to witness the aftermath of the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse in Baltimore, caused by the cargo ship Dali striking the bridge and resulting in the deaths of six construction workers. The scene revealed maroon containers larger than cars twisted and crushed, massive steel beams warped into crooked arches, and pillars of jagged concrete poking out from the water. The Coast Guard boat approached the cargo ship, where crew members from India remained to keep it operable, and a thin yellow boom floated around the ship to contain spills.
