A cargo ship, Morning Midas, carrying over 3,000 vehicles, including around 750 electric or hybrid cars, caught fire off the Alaskan coast. The 22 crew members were safely evacuated. The ship, located approximately 340 miles southwest of Adak, continues to burn. No firefighting vessels are nearby, and a salvage team is expected to arrive on Monday. The extent of the damage and the cause of the fire remain unknown, though the presence of electric vehicle batteries and hundreds of tons of gas fuel onboard raises concerns.
