Mediterranean

Researchers uncover dramatic evidence that the Mediterranean may have been rapidly flooded by one of the largest megafloods in Earth's history, challenging long-held assumptions about slow geological processes and reigniting interest in ancient historical traditions

CNN says the "Great Bear," a Russian cargo ship that went down in the Mediterranean on December 23, 2024, was moving components for two nuclear reactors bound for North Korea. Fourteen crew members were rescued; investigators say a "Western power" may have fired a torpedo. The ship's operator denies it, calling the incident a "terrorist attack."
