An official of the White House yesterday refused to exclude the possibility of cheating in the crash of the North Sea, with speculation that one of the ships has been hacked.
A Portuguese flag freight ship with cyanide beaten in an American military oil tanker that caused a 'massive fireball' off the coast of Yorkshire.
The aircraft fuel flowed in the North Sea through the torn grip of the American flagging oil tanker MV Stena Immaculate, which transported American military supplies. It had been anchor when the Portuguese registered cargo ship MV Solong crashed into it.
A senior civil servant of the White House told the maritime website gcaptain.com that cheating was not excluded. There was speculation that the Solong was possibly hacked by Russia or other hostile states and turned into a 'spear'.
A total of 36 Mariners were saved after leaving ships, while explosions were cradling their doomed ships.
Last night analysis company Vortexa said that 130,000 barrels of aircraft fuel leaked in the water.
The owner Ernst Russ's owner Ernst Russ in Solong said that one of the 14 crew members of the ship was still missing, while the rest were safe ashore.
The cargo vessel transported 15 shipping containers full of sodium cyanide-a very toxic and, according to water, a report from Maritime Data Provider Lloyd's List Intelligence.
MV Stena Immaculate exploded in a 'massive fireball' after he was hit by MV Solong, which leaked approximately 18,000 tons of aircraft fuel in the North Sea.

The Solong had sailed from the Scottish port of Grangemouth to Rotterdam in the Netherlands.
While it steamed on 16 knots-hevanger 18 km / h-langs the east coast of England, the crew did not seem to see the huge tanker parked and ramming in side-on.
While the researchers of the maritime accident started yesterday, an expert suggested: 'Nobody on the cargo ship was paying attention' when it was approaching the Stena Immaculate – who was able to wear 46.5 million liters of oil – about 13 miles off the coast, east of Hull and the Humber Estuary, where it had anchored at night.
The 461FT Solong 'not even delayed' when he plowed 'full bore' in the side of the 600ft-long tanker while apparently on autopilot, said Professor Sal Mercogliano of the American navy history.
In a YouTube video that analyzed the tracking data of the ships, he said: “It seems that Solong is just rammed directly in the side of Stena Immaculate.”
Dramatic images showed that the affected ships were caught up while they were swimming around by hell, because a massive rescue operation was launched at 9.48 hours yesterday shortly after the crash.

Lifeboat-Bewelenningen from Skegness, Bridlington, Moolethorpe and Cleethorpes participated in the operation, while the Humber Coastguard gave a warning for all ships nearby fire control options to help.
In a absorption of the warning from the coast guard, other ships were warned: 'Stena Immaculate carries Jet A1 fuel on fire and in the water. Request that ships remain at a safe distance. '

The Stena Immaculate, who had traveled from the Greek port of Agioi Theodoroi, was chartered by the military sealift command of the American navy as part of the tanker's security program that “supports American military missions around the world.”
Dr. Abdul Khalique, head of the maritime center of Liverpool John Moores University, who used simulators to reconstruct the incident, said: 'It can be assumed that the watchful goators on MV Solong did not carry out their duty to maintain a correct lookout by all available resources' as required for the prevention of the prevention for the prevention for the prevention for the prevention for the prevention for the prevention of the prevention for the prevention of the prevention for the prevention of the prevention for the prevention of the prevention for the prevention of the prevention for the prevention of the prevention for the prevention of the prevention for the prevention of the prevention for the prevention of the prevention for the prevention of the prevention for the prevention of the prevention for the prevention of the prevention of the prevention for the prevention of the prevention of the prevention of the prevention of the preventable resources'.
There were immediate fears for an environmental catastrophe when the aviation fuel flowed into the sea.
Martin Slater, from the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust, said that it could possibly be 'devastating' for the Humber Estuary, with birds and stamps in danger.

Richard Barnard of the charity said: “Oil has a direct influence on sea birds, cover their feathers and reduces their waterproofing and buoyancy, which can lead to drowning, or it can poison them through intake.”
Dr. Tom Webb, senior teacher Marine Ecology and Conservation at the University of Sheffield, said: 'The nature of the coast of Yorkshire and Humber Estuary is of immense biological, cultural and economic importance.
“Wading birds and water birds gather in large numbers while moving between winter and breeding grounds, while the iconic sea birds of Yorkshire soon come to the coast to breed.”
There are emergency measures for wounded birds that wash ashore in the coming days, including euthanasic animals if their injuries are serious.
Harj Narulla, a lawyer for the environment of Doughty Street Chambers, said that the costs for cleaning up an oil slick can be in the tens of millions of pounds. Usually the company turned out to have caused the Morsvoets the bill.

Dr. Jonathan Paul, a senior teacher in geosciences, said that the environmental impact of the leakage of the sodium cyanide would hang from or the buses were pierced that was unclear last night and adds: 'In the worst-case scenario you have a large Mors of Satrium Cyanide, which results in the death of the death of the death of the death of the death of the death of the death of the death of the death of the death of the death of the death of the death of the death of the death of the death of the death of many “”
US Logistics Group Crowley, who manages the oil tanker, said in a statement: “Stena Immaculate was hit by the container ship Solong.
“The Stena Immaculate sustained a torn loading tank. The Stena Immaculate crew left the ship after several explosions on board. '
Martyn Boyers, Chief Executive of the port of Grimsby East, said that 13 victims were initially brought in by a commercial catamaran, followed by another ten on a pilot boat of a port and nine on the ship of another pilot.
A total of 36 were brought ashore during the day.
Mr. Boyers said that there had been 'a huge fireball', adding it: 'They must have sent a Friday day. There has been a fleet of ambulances [at the dock] To pick up everyone they can find. '
Erik Hanell, Chief Executive of Stena Bulk, the company that owns the tanker said that the crew of more than 20 was 'safe and responsible' against lunch.
Ernst Russ, the company that owns the Solong, has released a statement stating: '13 of the 14 Solong crew members were safely brought to the coast.
'The efforts to find the missing crew member are underway. Both ships have suffered considerable damage in the impact of the collision and the subsequent fire. '
The Navy Accident Investigation Branch said it “had used a team” in Grimsby. Elsewhere, it was reported that two maritime safety sources said there was no indication of 'malignant activity'.
In Downing Street, the official spokesperson for the Prime Minister said that the collision was an 'extreme regarding situation'.
