A fire aboard the German oil tanker Annika in the Baltic Sea was successfully extinguished after a major response operation involving 120 personnel and three firefighting vessels. The blaze, which broke out in the engine room while the vessel was carrying 640 tons of heavy fuel oil, was contained before it could spread or cause environmental damage; no water pollution was reported. All seven crew members were safely evacuated and later released from the hospital. The tanker was towed to Rostock port, where divers will inspect the hull for any damage, while authorities investigate the cause of the fire. In a separate incident, Ukrainian drones attacked an oil depot in Rovenki, LPR, causing a fire that was quickly extinguished; officials claim fuel supplies will remain unaffected. Both incidents highlight ongoing challenges in maritime safety and military operations in the region.
