Here the big story on this Tuesday morning I just woke up to this WHOA DUDE! BALTIMORE, Md. -- A container ship struck Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge early Tuesday after losing propulsion, causing a "catastrophic collapse," sending vehicles and people into the water, officials in Maryland said. Six people remain unaccounted for as the desperate search continues at the site of the bridge collapse, Coast Guard officials said at a Tuesday morning news conference. Five submerged vehicles have also been found in the water, Baltimore City Fire Chief James Wallace told CNN. Authorities have been able to find three passenger vehicles, a cement truck and a fifth vehicle submerged in the water using infrared and side-scan sonar technology, according to Wallace. abc7.com/baltimore-francis-scott-key-bridge-collapse-maryland/14571840/

There may be mayday on the ship Baltimore bridge collapse: Ship issued power failure mayday Maryland governor says ship issued mayday before crash While the cause of the ship crashing into a major Baltimore bridge is under investigation, Governor of Maryland Wes Moore told a media briefing that the container ship lost power before colliding with the structure. Moore said that the vessels operators had issued a mayday call in the moments before the collision. It was moving at a "rapid" eight knots (9 miles per hour), alerted authorities that it had lost power allowing officials to limit traffic on the bridge before the crash. "I'm thankful for the folks who — once the warning came up and once notification came up that there was a mayday — who literally by being able to stop car www.dw.com/en/baltimore-bridge-collapse-ship-issued-power-failure-mayday/live-68669373

It's amazing. We have pretty much abandoned Israel and bad things happen and most people cannot connect the dots.

Guess who had press conference our fav senior citzen Sleepy Joe LOL! Biden stresses economic importance of bridge, says government will cover 'entire cost' of repairs US President Joe Biden emphasized the economic importance of the bridge and said that "the federal government will pay for the entire cost of repairs. Asked by a reporter if the shipping company should be held responsible for the costs, he said: "That could be, but we are not going to wait for that to happen." Biden said that 800,000 vehicles pass through the Port of Baltimore every year and that 15,000 jobs depend on the port. "We're going to protect those jobs and those workers," he promised. Finally, he said the US Army Engineer Corp would be leading the operation to clear the port and that he would be visiting himself in the near future. Biden thanks first responders who 'inevitably saved lives' US President Joe Biden has expressed his gratitude to the "the brave rescuers who rushed to the scene" and praised traffic controllers who, responding to the ship's mayday call, "closed the bridge to traffic before it was struck, inevitably saving lives." To the people of Baltimore, he said: "We're with you and we're not leaving." www.dw.com/en/baltimore-bridge-collapse-ship-issued-power-failure-mayday/live-68669373

So far 6 people still missing 6 people still missing after collapse, 2 rescued Six people are still missing following the collapse of Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge after a container ship collided with one of its pylons, the state Secretary of Transportation, Paul Wiedefeld, said. Rescuers pulled out two survivors, one of whom was being treated in hospital. Authorities believe eight people were on the bridge when it was hit. Wiedefeld said that all six missing people are believed to be construction workers, who were working on the bridge, repairing potholes, at the time. Maryland's governor, Wes Moore, declared an emergency following the collapse. Temperatures in the water were around 8 degrees Celsius (47 Fahrenheit) at the time of the apparent accident, levels that can be fatal after just a few hours or immersion, or less, and that are liable to rapidly lead to exhaustion or unconsciousness. www.dw.com/en/baltimore-bridge-collapse-ship-issued-power-failure-mayday/live-68669373

Oliver: yes, I agree, because as God said in the Bible ( and most leaders of nations or countries, either don't believe it, or don't know):
Blessed are those who bless you ( 'you': meaning Israel), and cursed are those who curse you.” Numbers 24:9
Furthermore, the day is coming, when no nation will stand and protect etc. Israel, and THAT..... will be the absolute proof of Scripture, the Bible, God's Word, which prophecy 'predicted' and is one of the major signs of the END Times!!!

Hamas Information Bureau:
18 Palestinians have been killed in the last few hours because of the aid drops from the air.
12 died by drowning
when they tried to rescue aid from the sea
and
another 6 were killed
as a result of being crushed by the crowd when they tried to reach the aid that was parachuted. ~~~~~~~~~~
VIDEO:
Some Muslims in the Russian city of Astrakhan who played loud music on the day of mourning for the attack
were dealt with by the local police. ~~~~~~
