According to the Ministry of Emergencies of Ukraine, the crew members of a dry cargo ship burning in the Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov are citizens of the Russian Federation.

The Mi-8 rescue helicopter, which arrived in time for the Ivan Vikulov ignition site 60 kilometers from the shore, evacuated 10 crew members and delivered it to Simferopol. “The condition of the saved is normal,” the press service of the Crimean Ministry of Emergencies said.

The captain and three other sailors did not leave the bulk carrier and were left to wait for the arrival of the icebreakers.

Earlier, the icebreaker “Captain Belousov” came out of Kerch under the flag of Ukraine to help the sailors of the dry cargo ship, and the icebreaker “Captain Moshkin” left Mariupol under the flag of Russia.

About the fire on the "Ivan Vikulov" it became known this morning. According to the press service of the Ministry of Emergencies of Ukraine, at 06.50 local time (or 08.50 Moscow time), the operational rescue service officer received a message from Ivan Vikulov about the fire. A cargo ship with 14 crew members was flying the flag of Malta in Rostov-on-Don. According to one information, he was coming from Algeria. On the other - from Turkey. There is no cargo on board.

As told in the Ministry of Emergencies of Ukraine, a fire on the "Ivan Vikulov" occurred on the stern of the deck superstructure of the vessel, and could result from an explosion.

At the same time, the cargo ship Ivan Vikulov has been standing for a week - since January 28 - due to the formation of ice far from the coast, in the Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov, 50 kilometers east of the village of Strilkovo.

According to the opinion expressed at various maritime forums, it could be smoky on a dry cargo ship both due to a shorted electrical wiring and because of the human factor. “For more than a week they’ve been standing in the ice, no help - why shouldn’t you draw attention to yourself in this way, and not call the icebreakers to help?”, Forum users ask themselves.

Replicas from the forums:

  “A fire could have occurred from a wiring closure” - “A bulk carrier is relatively new ... What could be a wiring closure?” - “Guys, there is simply nothing to explode on the Volga (if it was redone with heavy fuel)” - Former Aston Prelude. He worked there from 1996 to 2000. In those days, the technical condition was very good ”-“ Respect and respect to the fire brigade and the captain, let's hope that everything will work out. ”

According to the website, on December 15 last year, at about 2 am Moscow time, in the vicinity of the Karaul village of the Taimyr municipal district of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, three cabins of the second level of the Vaigach nuclear-powered icebreaker illuminated the bulk carrier Kapitan Danilkin from the port of Dudinka to the Kara Gate along the Yenisei River. .

According to Vladimir Markin, the official representative of the Investigative Committee, the initial investigative actions taken at the scene allowed the investigators to determine the priority version of the cause of the fire. A fire could occur due to a short circuit in the cabin of one of the sailors, who left many electrical appliances plugged in, and left the cabin himself.

  “During the inspection of the vessel, conducted by investigators and forensic experts with the involvement of nuclear experts, no damage to the nuclear reactor was detected,” Vladimir Markin emphasized.

In the Red Sea on July 6, 197 migrants died in a fire on a ship. The ship transported illegal migrants from African countries, primarily Eritrea and Ethiopia.

And on June 1, in the Sea of \u200b\u200bOkhotsk during the detention by border guards, a shipwrecked ship under the flag of Cambodia. There were no documents authorizing fishing. On the other hand, about four tons of blue crab and about six tons of opilio shear crab were discovered.

Suddenly, during the inspection, the schooner banked and began to sink. As it turned out later, the captain of the ship gave the command to open the kingstones to hide the fact of poaching. The crew of the schooner, consisting of fourteen citizens of Russia, switched to “standard life-saving appliances”, from which they were evacuated to the Argal border patrol ship.
