According to media reports, the 2 tankers involved in the incident may have been carrying up to 5,000 tons of oil products each. “If this quantity of crude enters the sea, it could become one of the largest environmental disasters in the Black Sea region,” Greenpeace stated.

According to Russian media and the Russian Federal Agency for Sea and Inland Water Transport, 2 tankers collided during the storm near Kerch. As a result, one of the crewmembers of the Volgoneft-212 tanker died, and another 12 were recovered.
