Storm brings chaos to Black Sea

Posted January 3rd, 2008 by Weather Toolbar

At least four sailors have died after their Bulgarian cargo ship sank in a storm lashing the Kerch Strait, just north of the Black Sea. Rescuers from Ukraine and Russia are searching for the other crew from the Vanessa. There were 10 Bulgarians and a Ukrainian pilot on board.
The crew reportedly took to life rafts when their ship, carrying iron, sank en route to Burgas in Bulgaria.
