Frachchiff on the Danube: Successful recovery after heavy flood of rain!

There was a big mess on the Danube near Regensburg in the last few days when a cargo ship with 1,780 tons of iron ore loaded over a hundred meters long has been loaded across the river since June 11, 2025. The recovery attempts that have been undertaken since then proved to be extremely challenging. As

Despite the difficult circumstances, ships were able to pass the side in the blockade area, which at least maintained a certain flow of traffic. Slim was temporarily closed by the Danube due to the recovery attempts, such as n-tv.de reported. However, it remains unclear whether the rescue work can be completed this week.

After the successful salvage, the ship was attached and is now being examined for possible damage. An external company is to be commissioned to unload the cargo, which could make the ship more maneuverable. The subsequent transport to the Westhafen in Regensburg to unload the freight is also due.

And so the situation on the Danube in Regensburg remains exciting, while the emergency services continue to work at full speed to release the waterway as soon as possible.
