139-meter ship breaks down in the Bosphorus

The mechanical failure of the Saint Kitts and Nevis-flagged cargo ship, which had anchored off Kanlıca in the Bosphorus due to engine trouble, has been resolved following the intervention of response teams.

The 139-meter-long ship named Alisuvar Mammadov had anchored in the area due to a malfunction while transiting toward the Black Sea. It was reported that the ship resumed its voyage after the completion of the work.
