KUWAIT, Oct 9 (KUNA) -- An Iranian cargo ship sank near the Sheikh Jaber Al-Ahmad causeway, a cable-stayed bridge pending construction, but there were no reported casualties, Kuwaiti authorities said on Monday.
The Doha port-bound cargo ship coming from Iran was completely submerged but all six Iranian sailors onboard the vessel emerged unscathed, Kuwait's Fire Service Directorate public relations Director-General Lt. Khalil Al-Amir noted.
The sailors were saved and handed over to the Kuwaiti coastguard, he added. (end) ns.nam
