    On 16 September, an MSC feeder boxship, the 1,730 TEU MSC Riona, was involved in an accident at Yantian Port in southern China, resulting in part of a ship-to-shore crane collapsing onto the vessel.

    As a result, a number of boxes from the ship fell into the sea, according to local sources.

    MSC Riona was built in 1998 and was deployed on an intra-Asia service.

    The accident occurred around 8:40 am, causing the suspension of operations at berth two of the Shenzhen port. At the time of writing, no injuries have been reported.
