⚠️ JUST IN: ‘Explosion’ Sparks Massive Fire on German Oil Tanker

The 240ft tanker 'Annika' dramatically burst into flames following reports of a loud explosion while anchored in the Bay of Mecklenburg off the Baltic coast Friday morning.

An emergency tugboat immediately set out to unload and cool the ship before other vessels joined to fight the flames and evacuate those onboard.

A spox for the Cuxhaven Emergency Command, which is leading the rescue operation, told local media that the tanker currently has 640 tonnes of heavy oil on board.
