Two tankers briefly collided in Egypt's Suez Canal, ship tracking company Marine Traffic said early Wednesday, citing eyewitnesses. One of the ill-fated tankers belonged to the Singapore-flagged BW Lesmes, while the other one to Cayman Islands-flagged Burri. There was no immediate confirmation from the Suez Canal Authority. Meanwhile, tug operations are underway. More details are awaited. Will Climate Change Cut off the Panama Canal?
