SINGAPORE - Three Indian vessels joined firefighting operations off the coast of Colombo, Sri Lanka, on Thursday (May 27) to contain a raging inferno on board a Singapore-registered container ship, the X-Press Pearl, after an explosion on Tuesday .
Fears continue that the X-Press Pearl, a vessel that is just three months old, could break apart, spewing tonnes of oil. Firefighting tugs have constantly been spraying and misting the stricken vessel with support from the Sri Lankan navy and Indian coast guard, who remain on scene, said X-Press Feeders, the ship s operator, in a statement on Thursday.
All 25 foreign crew members were safely evacuated on Tuesday, a spokesman for the operator, Mr Andrew Leahy, told The Straits Times.
