In this week’s podcast we reveal the full story of the Moldovan-flag bulk carrier, The Rhosus, which in 2013 arrived in Lebanon carrying 2,750 ammonium nitrate. The story of a botched loading, crew abandonment that followed left a tomb bomb inside the heart of Beirut and the Rhosus rusting under the breakwater of the port. We explore what happened and ask whether the devastating explosion will be a wake up call to the rest of the supply chain to take dangerous good handling more seriously.
