A Chinese heavy-lift ship encountered rough weather off the coast of Galicia, Spain, leading to the loss of two massive gantry cranes overboard. The incident occurred while the ship was transporting the cranes, which were likely intended for port infrastructure projects. The severe conditions caused the cargo to shift, resulting in the cranes toppling into the sea. Authorities have been alerted to potential navigation hazards caused by the submerged cranes. No injuries or environmental pollution have been reported, but investigations are underway to assess the impact and ensure maritime safety in the region. Salvage operations may follow.
