What happened

UKMTO Warning 164 describes steering-gear-room and port water-tank damage; crew were safe and the vessel proceeded toward Fujairah anchorage. This is separate from Warning 162’s fire account. No reviewed primary source explicitly matches a vessel name to 164; Angola Prosperity is a candidate in the same-day IMO list, not an established notice match. No verified vessel image can be selected. Updated on 25 October 2026, 01:10 UTC+0.

When cited sources give different casualty, damage or spill figures for this event, they’re reported side by side above rather than merged into one number. See how confidence levels work.
