MV Ruby's Explosive Cargo Docks Safely in UK Port

The ship, carrying 20,000 tonnes of ammonium nitrate, faced multiple port rejections before being allowed to dock in Great Yarmouth for cargo transfer and repairs.

The MV Ruby, a Maltese-registered cargo ship, was denied entry by several European ports due to its 20,000 tonnes of ammonium nitrate cargo.
Ammonium nitrate, used in fertilizers and explosives, was the cause of the 2020 Beirut explosion, making the Ruby's cargo a significant safety concern.
The ship, damaged by a storm, is set to transfer its cargo at Great Yarmouth before undergoing necessary repairs.
Despite fears, the ship's management assures that the ammonium nitrate poses no risk in its current state.
The UK government granted docking permission, noting no breach of international law as the ship is neither Russian-owned nor flagged.
