Quotes

The manager of the Chinese ship that was spinning near the cable damage tells HS his understanding of what is happening on the ship now.

"I know the ship is docked there, but haven't been in touch with the crew," says Tong.

"There has been nothing unusual about them, but 'the journey of the entire crew has been quite ordinary'. He has only heard about cable crises on the internet."

"We are waiting for an order from the company," the ship had replied when the Danes asked why the ship stopped on Tuesday.

The captain of the ship is named Zhou Bin. The information provided by Tong matches the documents published by the Russian media.

According to MarineTraffic data shows that a Danish pilot boarded the Chinese ship on Tuesday morning. From the incident information of the Chinese vessel, it appeared that later on Tuesday the pilot of another Danish pilot boat also boarded the vessel.
