The crippled Fremantle Highway is towed into Eemshaven after fire ravaged the ship for a week.
More than a week after fire swept through a cargo ship carrying almost 4,000 cars in the North Sea, the crippled ship has been towed into port in the north-east of the Netherlands.
The other 22 survived, and seven of them jumped into the sea to escape. All but two of the crew came from India.There were fears the ship might sink, raising fears of an environmental disaster in the waters of the Wadden Sea, designated a World Heritage site on the edge of the North Sea. Two days ago the Dutch infrastructure agency said it believed the fire was finally out. At that point authorities decided it should be brought into port as soon as possible because of imminent bad weather.
