After the accident occurred, the Romanian rescue agency immediately dispatched two rescue boats to the scene to evacuate all crew members aboard the attacked ship, including 3 injured people. All crew members have been safely transferred ashore. In addition, Romania also dispatched a tugboat to the accident area to prevent the damaged ship from drifting, posing a further threat to navigation safety. Dahn said that the relevant Romanian agencies have now entered a state of alert and will investigate the specific circumstances, causes and responsibilities of this incident. As of now, Russia and Ukraine have yet to respond to this incident. Since the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, the Black Sea shipping safety situation has continued to be tense. Since this year, there have been a number of incidents where Russian or Ukrainian drones have entered Romanian airspace and territorial waters.
