coast guard lieutenant henry lithium. he's a crash reconstructionist. it's good to have you with us tonight as we just heard from ivan, these three deadly incidents on ships owned by the same company. does that raise any red flags for you? and if so, what? >> well, not necessarily, obviously, being at see even under the best of conditions can be hazardous for the crew. our reach, those goals previous incidents that were described have to be compared to see if there's any corollary or relationship to what happened in this case. of course, you study the history of casualty to use this, see if there's anything that can be learned from it. but being in c is inherently dangerous occupation. >> the chilean navy confirmed to cnn that the ship was held briefly in the country last june over a propulsion issue. we've seen this video with the lights go out on the ship twice before it hit the bridge. we also saw that black smoke do you see a way that these three things would be connected she's functioning plus the generators the way it was described as the ship blacks out. so now you're electri

>> well, erika, officials from singapore, i have rushed to baltimore to assist the us coast guard in the investigation. they say they're also conducted i think their own investigation into this because the ship the dali is a singapore flagged vessel. so they say they're going to share all the information they can get from the company itself that operates it. synergy marine with a us authorities i'm coming to you live here from hong kong's busy harbor and port over my shoulder because for some of our viewers who've never been close to some of these enormous container ships. it can help provide some sense of scale of just how enormous these mammoth ships really are >> behemoths of the sea >> international >> trade depends on mammoth vessels like this container ships that kind that brought down baltimore's francis scott key bridge in an instant up close you realize, just how huge these ships really are this container ship here. it's a bit larger than the dali that is the singaporean owned container ship that brought down the bridge in baltimore this week the dali was built in 2015 and e

so the most recent inspection that we know of was september 9 of last year in new york by the us coast guards found at that point, but just three months earlier in june of 2020? he three in chile, there were some issues found with this ship, including problems with propulsion and auxiliary machinery like gauges and thermometers. but the big incident involving this ship was actually about a year after its construction this was seven years ago, november of 2016, in belgium, there was actually an instance the ship was pulling out of poured. it hit a query, which is a platform that's used for loading ships as it was trying to exit the north sea container terminal. and there was major hall damage affecting sea worthiness. they actually had to basically dock the ship for quite some time to repair it after that incident, it was a relatively new shipping but that time still a relatively new ship, average size container ship with 22 crew members. so certainly a lot of questions as to the state at status of this ship, even though that most recent inspection by the us coast guard in new york, september

time one and a china will probably, um, reinforces coast guard patrols, you know, again, what's united states going to do is going to gonna end up brings us navy to call from chinese coast guard. i mean, that will be a major escalation. it's interesting to know that the actually the filipino public and also happy with the us side that that's because of the increasing us military presence in the philippines. why they unhappy with the situation? what philippines has a long colonial history under us occupation. and this, this lot of the history is not exactly happy memories folder, filipinos, you know, us has been this history on us spaces in, in the philippines, in the clark air base and to pick air based rock crime prostitution. and this is one of the reason why the filipino people wanted to throw out the americans even 19 nineties in the 1st place. and now us is call me back. i mean a nice understandable song. the filipino citizen is not happy that spoken to us today. i called us all state contributes. i call jack, thank as many thanks to you for joining us. a on all the international coming your way. next is peace and about on the coasta

used to go over there. so we can't anymore it because the chinese coast guard is patrolling, and i've been, we used to come across them quite often and there wasn't a problem. because the now we just do our best not to go the policies, incidentally, capsizing videos on chinese social media, show the coast guard, pressing ahead with more patrols around seeing that sometimes even using the hakim language coming be spoken in taiwan typeface of several chinese vessels, events that prohibited horses during those patrol badging, which claims silver and see over taiwan that says such restrictions don't exist. it's not fundamental disagreements which is raised fees, a spot to could ignite. why the conflict? some of the thing here. you appreciate just how small the margin for error is. this land behind us is the chinese city of charlotte with millions of residents, the y best. so in the distance over the, if the chinese coast guard on this line right here is controlled by taiwan. now with china sending more close con patrols into these voices, type pay faces a dilemma. do nothing. can they risk china replying, even

us. but it's not i don't want anyone to think anyone anything was being held back. that's very standard information. i do want to thank the coast guard for that because that was pretty immediate. it was done right away. and then they they provided us with a thumb drive that we're able to evaluate back at our lab at headquarters and i'm sure you will have questions on that. i do want also say, i've i've seen a lot of comparison between the vtr and cvr is an fdr's are black boxes on commercial airliners this is really a basic system. and fdr would give you 1,000 parameters so that's not this vtr is basic. it is a snapshot of the major systems on a vessel. and we have long wanted more recording, more parameters to be recorded on a vr. so that's hopefully something that we can provide happy to, answer more questions about that timeline. but before i do, i want to continue with what our team has done are survival factors, group their whole role is to examine the response. and so they were able to obtain dispatch logs from the maryland transplant rotation authority, the baltimore county fire department, the baltimore city fire department,

and the us coast guard will review additional additional information regarding what to expect and possibly how long this could take but i'll tell you now there's no definitive timeline on this please be patient please keep the family members in mind. >> in coordination with our fbi partners we've determined the countries of origin of those that are presumed deceased to be mexico >> what the mala el salvador and honduras >> the notifications. >> so >> these individuals, family members, and loved ones outside of the united states is being handled by the federal bureau of investigation. and accordance with their established protocols >> again, i encourage you all to think about these people and those that they love and they lost their going to use your love and support now hand it off so that >> good evening. >> my name is rabble shannon gilreath first i want to say our deepest condolences go out to the sympathy, goes out to the families of the impacted individuals who also want announced that the coast guard, along with our federal and state and local agency partners have stood up a unified

we had state engineers, private engineers helping us, coast guard engineers working there, and they'lligure out the right plan to break the bridge up into the right size pieces that we can lift, and the second part of that is we need to get the heavy lift equipment here, and we have been telling you the cranes are on the way and the equipment is on the way. behind us, you can see the first of those things that are arriving. they're arriving, and they're going to continue to arrive for the next several days. and we're going to continue that planning so that we will be ready, so you'll take advantage of that as soon as possible, and do it safely. i'll turn it over to colonel pinchasin. >> we have lost audio, obviously, but you can hear, all the folks working in baltimore to get things back up and running. as governor wes moore said, this is a complex and unprecedented operation laying out four priorities, the coast guard. the rear admiral say they have three things they're working to do, clear that shipping channel, get that ship out of there, and then work on the debris. let me bring in
