North Sea Collision: The Russian captain of the Solong container ship has been charged with gross negligence manslaughter following a deadly collision in the North Sea.
The crash, which occurred 13 miles off the East Yorkshire coast near Withernsea, involved the US-registered oil tanker Stena Immaculate, carrying jet fuel for the US Navy.
Authorities confirmed that one crew member, a Filipino national, died in the collision, while several others were rescued.
The captain, Vladimir Motin, 59, was taken into custody and is set to appear before Hull Magistrates Court.
Investigations are ongoing as salvage operations continue on both vessels, with concerns over environmental impact from the spill.

Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson rejected Conservative suggestions to scrap net zero targets and focus on exploiting North Sea oil and gas.

The U.S. Navy has deployed advanced warships equipped with nearly 1,200 precision-guided missiles, signaling a sharp escalation in America’s military readiness. Defense analysts warn this unprecedented firepower marks a direct message to adversaries like China, Russia, and Iran, amid growing geopolitical flashpoints. While Washington frames the move as deterrence, critics fear it risks fueling an arms race and sparking dangerous confrontations at sea. With the Indo-Pacific and Middle East already on edge, the deployment underscores a new era of high-stakes naval warfare.

Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro has defiantly declared that the United States cannot invade his country, even as Washington intensifies its military buildup in the Caribbean. The U.S. Navy has deployed eight warships, thousands of marines, and even a nuclear submarine close to Venezuela’s waters, sparking fears of a wider conflict. In response, Caracas has mobilized 15,000 troops, drones, and warships to reinforce security along the Colombia border. While U.S. officials insist the deployment is aimed at combating drug cartels, critics argue the scale of the operation points to a regime change agenda. Venezuela’s ambassador to the UN ridiculed the move, saying “no one fights drug cartels with nuclear submarines.” Meanwhile, Washington doubled its bounty on Maduro to $50 million, intensifying the pressure. Maduro insists Venezuela is stronger than ever and ready to confront what he calls an imperialist threat to sovereignty and peace.

Venezuela has escalated tensions with the United States as President Nicolás Maduro ordered 15,000 troops to the Colombia border amid the arrival of three US Navy warships off Venezuela’s coast. The dramatic military build-up comes as Washington accuses Maduro of leading a massive cocaine-trafficking cartel, while Interior Minister Diosdado Cabello vowed to combat drug cartels “on all fronts.” The United States has doubled its bounty on Maduro’s capture to $50 million and is reportedly preparing to deploy 4,000 Marines to the region. Meanwhile, Caracas has seized 53 tons of drugs this year but rejects US claims, instead accusing Washington of plotting regime change. With Venezuelan tanks moving toward border zones and US destroyers patrolling nearby waters, the risk of a direct military clash between Trump’s forces and Maduro’s army is higher than ever. The standoff threatens to spiral into one of the most dangerous flashpoints in the Americas.
