Today’s Problematic ship is the MV Thamesborg
The MV Thamesborg is a 173 m Dutch-registered general cargo ship. Around midnight UTC on September 7, 2025, while she was transiting the Franklin Strait of the Northeast passage en route from China to the east coast of Canada, she became stuck in the Arctic sea ice. According to the operator Wagenborg there have been no injuries to the crew or environmental damage. The Canadian Coast Guard has dispatched two ice breakers to assist the MV Thamesborg.
