Crashed cargo ship Solong towed to Aberdeen

Solong arrived in Aberdeen after a tug-assisted journey lasting several days.

The ship pulled into port at about 07:15 silhouetted against the sunrise. The full extent of the damage to the vessel could be seen from the shore.

Small pockets of fire had continued for days on Solong before being extinguished.

Burnt tiny plastic pellets, known as nurdles, have been washed up along the east coast of the UK in the aftermath of the collision.

Rescuers saved 36 crew off both ships involved in the crash.
