Vehicles on the ship to Russia froze up during shipment

Dozens of vehicles loaded on the Panama-flagged cargo ship “Sun Rio” from Busan, South Korea, arrived at the port in Vladivostok city of Russia 5 days later. But the vehicles arrived at the port fully covered in ice due to cold weather. It’s been determined that thickness of the ice on the vehicles is varying 3 to 10 centimeters. Ship’s Captain Pyotr Osichansky stated that similar instances had frequently occurred before. “It took 5 days for the ship to reach Vladivostok from Busan. Water splashes on the ship, which is moving on the sea in windy weather, and an ice sheet forms with the effect of cold air,” Osichansky said. On the other hand, it’s been stated that the vehicles on the ship will be unloaded today, and it will be learned whether there is any permanent damage on the vehicles after the examination of the experts.
