‘No evidence of fuel spill’ where NZ ship sank: Samoa

Divers and marine experts have found no evidence of a major fuel spill on a Samoan reef after a New Zealand navy ship ran aground and sank, Samoa’s deputy prime minister says.

All 75 people on board the HMNZS Manawanui evacuated safely as the boat foundered about off the coast of Upolu, Samoa, early on Sunday. The ship was one of only nine in New Zealand’s navy and was the first the country lost at sea since World War II.
