For the first time in a month, ships are leaving the Port of Baltimore.
The port, one of the busiest on the East Coast, has been paralyzed since March 26 when the Dali freighter struck a support column of the Francis Scott Key Bridge, causing it to collapse.
On April 25, the first of 11 ships trapped in the port were able to sail out, using a channel that opened less than two hours earlier.
Here, the Carmen — the third and largest ship to leave the port — sails past the Dali and the collapsed bridge. While the Carmen set sail on April 25, crews continued to clear debris from the Dali.
