A huge cargo ship flying the Liberian flag collided with the first pillar of the Zárate Brazo Largo bridge and blocked navigation on the Paraná River for five days. After several maneuvers, two tows managed to remove the huge ship.
Naval circulation in the area is normalized. "The ship was removed from the Miter Bridge at 12 noon and no compromising crack was found in the bridge pier," reported the coordinator of the operation, Ernesto Arriaga, although specialized personnel will inspect the place where the accident occurred last Sunday.
