4 containers from Neo-Panamax container ship collapsed onto pier, Genoa

Published:

4 stacked containers fell overboard from Neo-Panamax container ship MSC GAIA at Genoa, Italy, during container offloading in the afternoon May 29.

Containers fell onto pier, luckily nobody was injured. Accident said to be caused by crane operator miscalculation – he moved offloading container too close to containers stack, so it hit the stack, sending it down. As of 1300 UTC May 30, MSC GAIA was anchored at Genoa Anchorage.
