The barge crashed into one of the pillars of Rákóczi Bridge in Budapest early Friday. The ship carried goods, and authorities immediately started to help continue its journey. Ripost made a video about the events, which you can watch below.

According to metropol.hu, a spokesperson of the Budapest Directorate for Disaster Management said that the barge did not suffer serious injuries, and it did not cause significant damage to the pillar either.

They added that there is no hazardous material among the goods the barge carries. The ship is currently still under the bridge, and

authorities are still working on helping it to continue its journey towards Vác.

According to Máté Kisdi, thankfully, nobody was hurt in the accident. Ripost, a Hungarian tabloid, made a short video about what is currently going on near Rákóczi Bridge which you can watch below:

In this case, nobody was injured, but we collected HERE the biggest catastrophes in Hungary. The biggest Hungarian boat crash happened on 30 May 1954.

23 people, including children, died

when a steam-powered passenger ship, Pajtás, capsized on Lake Balaton.

Since it was Children’s Day, many passengers on board were children. According to recollections, the problems started when everybody wanted to see the sailing competition starting in Tihany, so too many people huddled together on one side of the ship. As a result, the ship began to tilt, which caused panic among the passengers who rushed immediately to the other side, causing an even bigger lurch, and in the end, the ship turned upside down.
