Context on the pic? Did a ship run aground recently?

A bit surprised op didn't provide link, but might be because news takes a little bit of time to get translated. No major outlet reported in English just yet, but pics so it happened: https://www.msn.com/en-xl/news/other/astonishing-moment-135-metre-tanker-crashes-into-homeowners-garden-barely-missing-his-house/ar-AA1Fhehd

It is understood the same vessel has run aground three times previously within the last three years.

That sounds excessive; at some point it seems like that should cost someone their job?

spends all its time just cruising around, picking up chicks. damn, i want to be a boat now

edit - oops worst comment to reply to with this

Well to be honest if I had to go to Epstein island as something, a boat wouldn't be the worst thing. I might become complicit of human trafficking but I would be a boat, what could I do to stop it anyway? But you do have nice weather and you get tonsee all the other druglord and tax avoider islands.
