New Zealand military completes first phase of cleaning up polluted HMNZS Manawanui near Samoa.

The New Zealand Defence Force has completed the first phase of removing fuel and pollutants from the HMNZS Manawanui, a vessel grounded near Samoa. Despite challenging weather, the recovered materials have been safely stored in the Port of Apia. The operation's success led to a reduction in the restricted fishing zone, though a 2km safety buffer remains for ongoing removal efforts.
