Luxury cruise ship carrying 206 people runs aground in remote Greenland
A luxury cruise ship carrying 206 people has run aground in remote eastern Greenland with the nearest help by sea days away, the Danish military's Joint Arctic Command (JAC) said on Tuesday. The Ocean Explorer ran aground on Monday in Alpefjord in a national park some 1,400 km (870 miles) northeast of Greenland's capital Nuuk, the JAC said in a statement. There were no reports of injuries, JAC said.
"A cruise ship in trouble in the national park is obviously a worry. The nearest help is far away, our units are far away, and the weather can be very unfavourable, " JAC head of operations, Commander Brian Jensen, said in the statement. "However, in this specific situation, we do not see any immediate danger to human life or the environment, which is reassuring," he added. A spokesperson for Australian cruise operator Aurora Expeditions said in an emailed statement everyone on board was safe and well.
The JAC said its nearest unit was an inspection vessel some 1,200 nautical miles away at the time of the incident, meaning it could reach the grounded ship by Friday morning local time at the earliest. The Arctic command said it had asked a cruise ship located nearer to the Ocean Explorer to stay in the area so that it would be able to assist in case the situation changes. Completed in 2021, the Ocean Explorer can accommodate up to 134 passengers and offers trips to "some of the most wild and remote destinations on the planet", Aurora Expeditions said on its website.

据多家媒体报道，“海洋探险家”号邮轮悬挂巴哈马旗帜，在位于东北格陵兰岛国家公园的阿尔佩峡湾搁浅。这一搁浅位置非常偏远，该国家公园无人定居，而最近村庄也在数百公里以外。

8月31日凌晨，一艘大型船舶在长江南通段龙爪岩附近搁浅后，“骑”在岸边的栈桥上，船头翘起惹人注目。当天下午，南通海事局回应极目新闻记者称，正在制定方案将船只进行拖离。
网络视频显示，在江边，一艘大型船只横跨在一条从岸边伸往江心的栈道上，船头和船身高高翘起，跟灯塔并排在一起，无法动弹。视频发布后，引众多网友围观。有网友称，事发地位于江苏南通滨江公园龙爪岩栈桥。
南通居民林先生（化名）向新闻记者介绍，他每天早晨都会在滨江公园晨练，经常会携带小型航拍设备。31日早晨6点多，他来到公园晨练时，看到有一艘大型船只“骑”在了从岸边通往江中灯塔的龙爪岩及其延伸的栈道上，感官非常震撼，他马上进行了航拍。
“因为灯塔及栈道部分游客禁止进入，所以没有到现场近距离拍摄。”林先生称，他拍摄时天刚刚亮，此前他也没有见过有船只在这个地方搁浅。
31日下午，记者联系了事发地所属狼山风景区和南通五山旅游发展有限公司，工作人员均称接到了船只搁浅的消息，目前确定栈桥有损失，正在积极配合海事部门进行相关工作。
南通市海事局一名工作人员向记者确认，目前该船只依然在搁浅处，工作人员正在进行调查，制定方案将船只进行拖离。对于被撞栈道的损坏情况，该工作人员表示，该起事故对栈道设施肯定会造成影响，后续事故调查完成之后，会进行相关认定。记者询问轮船搁浅的原因、具体时间等问题，该工作人员并未回应，其称后续的调查详情将会对外进行通报。
