The Russian cargo ship Ursa Major, which sank in 2024 between Spain and Algeria near Murcia, allegedly transported nuclear reactors, according to CNN reporting.
Explosions that damaged the vessel may have been caused deliberately, the network suggested. The incident raised immediate concerns about environmental and security risks in European waters.
Spain's proximity to the incident drew attention to potential threats to Mediterranean shipping. The circumstances surrounding the ship's sinking remain contested, with questions about what caused the explosions and the full extent of its cargo.
