    Wow, that’s a terrible article. They just repeated three times that stuff fell into the sea, and the cruise ship is stuck for at least a day.

    They implied the stuff fell off the cruise ship, but they don’t actually say it.

    They implied that the stuff was undeclared, but don’t actually say it.

    They don’t actually say why the cruise ship is stuck. Are the containers blocking the ship from leaving? Are they stuck cause they had undeclared fruit and they need to be held for paperwork/questions? Are they held cause they’re not sure if something else will fall from the ship?

    I wouldn’t be surprised if this article was entirely written by AI with no editing.

      They didn’t fall off the cruise ship, but off of a container ship nearby.

      Sixteen containers fell from a cargo ship near the Nab tower lighthouse off Bembridge, Isle of Wight, at around 6pm on Saturday.

      The cruise ship is stuck because the container ship needs to recover the containers to protect the environment (and they don’t explicitly say, but moving a cruise ship through the harbor will kick up sediment and might damage the containers).
