Container ship MALIK ARCTICA stuck in ice off her port of destination Ittoqqortoormiit, southeast Greenland, since Oct 7, says a Maritime Bulletin news report.

What happened?

The ship is to offload winter supplies at Ittoqqortoormiit, so now she has to wait for ice condition improvement.

As of 0530 UTC Oct 8, the ship was still in ice, probably drifting with ice floe in eastern direction, or trying to free herself.
