Some new video has emerged showing the moment a cargo ship slammed into a villa in Turkey’s Bosphorus Strait.

As we reported last year, the incident occurred July 21, 2015 when the 106m Sierra Leone-flagged Majed and Randy ran into the villa near Istanbul’s Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge after experiencing a rudder malfunction. Luckily there were no injuries reported.

Some photos of the aftermath are below:
