The unusual story of the 107-meter “ghost ship” that was left adrift in the Paraná River due to flooding

World 1 source 1 country 🔦 Under-reported 5m ago

Severe flooding caused by the El Niño phenomenon in the Corrientes province of Argentina has resulted in significant maritime and human incidents along the Paraná River. A 107-meter-long vessel, which had been moored at a shipyard for over two decades without ever entering service, broke free from its moorings due to the rising river levels and drifted downstream.

In a separate development linked to the same environmental conditions, two rural workers who had been reported missing since October 13 were found deceased in the Paraná River. Authorities recovered their bodies on Monday following the flooding and inundations that have impacted the region.
