In a mysterious incident, the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman has collided with the merchant vessel Besiktas-M near Port Said, Egypt, in the Mediterranean Sea.
Besiktas-M is a bulk carrier registered under the flag of Panama and managed by Synergy Ship Management Turkey.
The following is an official statement by U.S. Naval Forces Europe and Africa / U.S. Sixth Fleet
“The Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75) was involved in a collision with the merchant vessel Besiktas-M at approximately 11:46 p.m. local time, Feb. 12, while operating in the vicinity of Port Said, Egypt, in the Mediterranean Sea.
The collision did not endanger the Harry S. Truman (CVN 75) as there are no reports of flooding or injuries. The propulsion plants are unaffected and in a safe and stable condition. The incident is under investigation. More information will be released as it becomes available.”

According to USNI News, USS Harry S. Truman entered the Mediterranean Sea on Feb. 3 and arrived in Souda Bay, Greece, on Feb. 6m after spending 50 days in the Red Sea. According to media reports, the carrier was escorted to its port call in Souda by USS Jason Dunham (DDG-109) while USS The Sullivans (DDG-68), also in the Mediterranean Sea, did not stop at the port. USS Stout (DDG-55) and USS Gettysburg (CG-64) remain in the Red Sea.
This transit into the Mediterranean Sea marked only the third case in over 15 months where no U.S. aircraft carrier is present in the Red Sea. The previous such situation happened in November 2024 when the Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group exited the region. Four destroyers maintained U.S. presence until the Truman Carrier Strike Group arrived.
In this case, the mystery surrounding the incident with USS Harry S. Truman raises questions regarding possibility that some sides may have been interested in such incident in order to delay the transition of the aircraft carrier trough the area.
it can be “carrier is not affected”, if this sorta thing happens, vessels are severely affected and damaged.
depends how rusty the bucket hits is. and how thick the carriers steel is. it’s not a regular vessel.
just declare war, or regime chaning shit to that country from where is that bulk carrier. they attacked your military assets. and this is intentional.
wakey wakey they don’t report evenly here its totally anti american all the time. they don’t even tl you that chinese war ship fired flarez at raaf vessel earlier or that australia is an anerican registered corporation since 1933 they tell you just rubbish here. imo
several birds with one stone: message to panama, message to turkiye, keeps the truman close to israel for the planned airstrike in gaza at noon on saturday.
they have achieved nothing so far. israel only seeks ceasefire (that they won’t respect whatsoever) only when they are loosing. so no exception this time. remember 2008/9, 2012, 2014, 2018, 2023 (before 7th of october.), they must lift all criminal blockades on gaza. if they don’t do so, war will continue. and that is good, because it will wear down israel, and consequently usa.
also hooked nose baboon doesn’t sound so vociferously, like back in the days, when he in ’95 proposed war on iraq, or last year in congress. large nose baboon have his balls shrinked.
down votes don’t show on pc correct trolling comments here according to anti american anti semitic racist homophobes resembling the nazi parties values imo course its probably just coincidental like soros the patron s views maybe.?
fuck that shut up with all that “nazi” stuff. they’re fucking done. over. past tense. get over it. no more nazis, everything is in american/jooz control. every fucking shit that happens here or there is theirs plan.
it’s a troll -bot. totally ignore. just a provocateur for some shitty shekels. a real dog of a thing.
when hamas can’t release the corpses you mean of the starved beaten and tortured hostages????
hahaha, he is in the mirror to recieve a missil from yemen. kaaboom blublubblub yankee to the bottom.
interesting. the carrier was probably running on ai autopilot. or was wounded in the red sea and has issues. no cover up here
and this is how you hide the battledamage the houthie inflicted ont he ship…
diversity, equity and inclusion ! ( from the handbook of admiral (rear admiral?) rachel levine perhaps ).
we don’t need the conspiracy nonsense, nor can southfront be short of money if it wastes resources on such things.
they’re founded by the american chamber of commerce. they say they’re self funded like retirees. sure. they’d be democrats like biden really with the sane rules of relationships most likely. imo
note that i apologise for and withdraw the second part; we all say things we shouldn’t, this time it’s me.
about the occupied palestine – the jews have no right to be resent in palestine and must be evicted, voluntarily or the hard way (in bodybags) and hamas should start returning the rest of the hostages in bodybags – they might start right there – bodybagging the hostages!
we are expert at lgbt navigation—amerikunt pilot was desperate for new transgender husband
your persistent like a woodpecker.
bingo this timei! he’s an imbecile.
who owns it? do t know? couldn’t find out due to secrecy or didn’t bother enough to care?
after getting used for target practice by the houties it’s got some issues.
no i.d. transponder/ transmitter comms from the carrier ? going dark were we ? uss liberty syndrome with the command on board ( very very relevant now )? questions questions questions.
the yanks think they have right of way wherever they go .obviously not their fault lol
there is nothing mysterious about the incompetence in the us navy
what a joke. each carrier is sourounded by a few escorting destroyers and frigattes and all of them have long range radars on board, also the carrier itself. so its nearly impossible to get a colision when each ship is tracked hundress of miles away and so hours before any possible collision. so thid must be total incompetence and moronism.
everyone knows american weapons aren’t that great. a new technique is being developed called ”ramming ships”.
who is stupid enough to navigate at night in a place swarming of ships with their transponder off? us, who else?
i am sure dei was involved. nato military have devolved to being safe spaces for lgbt degenerates and career opportunity centres for women too dumb to get real jobs and too ugly and obnoxious to get husbands. that is why they hand over their weapon to ukro-nazis and to fight their wars for them.
lesbian captain caused loss of 100million usd ship, all female navigation team cause loss of very expensive scandinavian frigate, all female crew of reconnaissance airplane turned it into a submarine, and a sexual harassment counselor tried to fly a helicopter and collided with an airliner. no mystery here.
so their super duper high tech radar couldn’t see a civilian freighter bearing down on them. typical of the usn, one of the world’s most inept run navies.
