(Bloomberg) -- An unidentified missile struck a Bangladeshi vessel docked at the Ukrainian port of Olvia on the northern Black Sea, setting it a blaze and killing an engineer on board, the ship owner said.
Bangladesh Shipping Corp. said the MV Banglar Samriddhi was stranded at the port after the Russian invasion of Ukraine began. The vessel wasn't carrying any cargo and had 29 crew on board.
“The missile set the vessel ablaze, but it was not clear which side fired the missile - Russian or Ukranian,” said Pijush Dutta, executive director of Bangladesh Shipping Corp.
