Moment by moment: How the Beirut blast unfolded in Lebanon's capital city
A damaged Russia n cargo ship packed with 20,000 tonnes of explosive material has been allowed to dock at a British port after weeks moored off the coast.
It is alongside a facility in Gorleston-on-Sea, with the ship now based just a few hundred metres away from a housing estate, primary school and sixth form college. Port officials in Great Yarmouth offered the controversial vessel a berth after she spent more than a month anchored 15 miles off the Kent coast.
But the operators of Great Yarmouth port insisted today that the ship had been berthed under 'the strictest safety conditions'. The MV Ruby was also turned away from a repair yard in Lithuania, and ultimately wound up waiting at anchor in the English Channel. Hundreds of people were evacuated from their homes after the unexploded German bomb was unearthed during building work for a new bridge in February last year.
