A cargo ship that caught fire earlier this month in the Pacific Ocean has sunk. The Morning Midas, which was left abandoned as it caught fire, was carrying about 3,000 vehicles, among which around 800 were electric vehicles.
The shipping company said that the cargo ship had sunk on June 23. Zodiac Maritime in a statement further said that the damage caused by the fire was compounded by heavy weather, and subsequently water entered inside the vessel, causing it to sink. Morning Midas, the cargo ship, caught fire earlier this month, with smoke initially seen emanating from a deck carrying electric vehicles.
