The Kerala state government has declared a statewide emergency after the Liberian-flagged cargo ship MSC ELSA 3 sank off its coast on Sunday. The ship was carrying 640 containers, including 13 with hazardous cargo like calcium carbide, which releases flammable acetylene gas. The incident has triggered fears of a major ecological disaster. Authorities have issued alerts for potential oil spills and toxic container drift, especially in southern Kollam and Alappuzha. The Indian Coast Guard has deployed two vessels and a Dornier aircraft to contain the spill, as over 450 metric tonnes of oil and diesel are feared to have leaked into the Arabian Sea. While all 24 crew members were rescued, residents and fishermen are urged to stay away from affected areas as coastal contamination looms.

Disaster strikes off the Kochi coast as the Liberian-flagged container ship MSC ELSA 3 tilts dangerously, spilling containers into the Arabian Sea — some filled with low sulfur fuel. Indian Navy and Coast Guard launch a high-stakes rescue mission, saving 21 of 24 crew members, including nationals from Russia, the Philippines, Ukraine, and Georgia. Aerial footage shows liferafts dropped from an ICG Dornier, as Kerala braces for a possible environmental crisis. With fuel containers likely to wash ashore and oil slicks spreading, the threat is far from over. This is an international emergency unfolding in real time.
