Baltimore Bridge Collapse
Early morning on Tuesday, March 26th, 2024, the Dali, operated by the Synergy Group while being chartered by Maersk, collided into the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore (part of I-695) causing it to collapse. Video shows the vessel, owned by Singapore based group Grace Ocean, lost power, resulting in a loss of control, but a full investigation is ongoing. There is not currently a timeline for when the channel might be reopened and the city of Baltimore remains in a state of emergency as recovery missions continue for the 6 missing people, who have now been presumed dead.
