Tragic Blaze Claims Lives of Two Newark Firefighters on Cargo Ship

A fire on a cargo ship at Port Newark in New Jersey has been burning for over 30 hours, resulting in the deaths of two firefighters who became trapped while fighting the blaze. The fire, which started on the 10th deck and spread to the 11th and 12th floors, was fueled by exploding vehicle gas tanks. Newark's fire chief stated that his department lacked the necessary training and equipment to handle such a fire, particularly one involving cars filled with gas on a cargo ship. The ship was carrying thousands of vehicles, and no electric cars or hazardous cargo were on board. Investigations are underway to determine the cause of the fire.
