    An aerial drone photograph shows a large container ship that appears to be grounded or stranded in shallow water, with multiple tugboats actively working to refloat or reposition it. The container ship is heavily loaded with multicolored shipping containers stacked on its deck, and tow lines are visibly connected between the tugboats and the vessel. The water around the bow appears discolored and turbid, suggesting shallow depth or disturbed sediment consistent with a grounding incident.
