In June, a cargo ship dropped that set fire to the Pacific Ocean. The morning midas, which was abandoned after the fire, carried about 3,000 vehicles, including around 800 electric vehicles.
The transport company said the cargo ship sank on June 23. In its statement, Zodiac Maritime further stated that the damage caused by the fire was enhanced by heavy weather and subsequently the water entered the ship, causing it to sink.
“Damage caused by fire, composed of heavy weather and subsequent water entrances, caused the morning midas 23rd June to immerse around 16.35 local time zone (UTC -9), in waters of approximately 5,000 meters deep and 360 naval miles from Earth,” the manager said.
