[Brief] On Tuesday morning, the cruise ship MSC Armonia struck a dock at the port of Roatan, Honduras, and appears to have briefly gone aground on a beach just past the pier.

Video from the scene shows that her port anchor was in the water as she approached the pier. A second eyewitness video made after the impact shows that her starboard anchor was also deployed at some point during the evolution.

She backed away from the beach under her own power several minutes after the incident. Source: www.maritime-executive.com
