Reportedly, Bulgaria's defense minister stated that three maritime drones struck the Liberian-flagged container ship 'Contship Jet' around midday yesterday. The attack occurred approximately 20 nautical miles off Bulgaria's coast near Cape Kaliakra, within its exclusive economic zone. The vessel was sailing from Israel to Constanța, Romania. All 18 crew members were rescued by the Bulgarian Navy and border police and taken to Varna with no fatalities. Bulgarian media reports the ship sank around midnight, with more than 20 containers containing hazardous materials drifting at sea. No one has been officially blamed for this attack.
