## Summary

A cruise ship, Mein Schiff 3, collided with a cargo ship while trying to leave Bremerhaven in stormy conditions, leaving it unable to depart. The collision damaged the cargo ship, and German water police are investigating how it happened.

Tugboats were assisting the cruise ship as strong winds hindered its progress; a passenger’s relative said it had stalled near the quay before the crash about 10 minutes later. No injuries were reported. The operator said 2,428 passengers and 922 crew were aboard, and passengers remained on the ship, which was due to begin a 20-day Canary Islands trip. Storm Manja was bringing possible wind peaks of 100 km/h inland and gusts of around 110 km/h on the North Sea coast.
