A Panama‑flagged cargo vessel, the Dura Bulk, sank off the coast of Western Sahara, Morocco's transport ministry said.
The ship, which was carrying a cargo of clinker, a key ingredient in cement production, went down on Saturday after reporting water ingress en route to Laayoune's port in Western Sahara, the ministry said in a statement, Reuters reported.
All crew have been rescued, and authorities opened an investigation into the incident, it added.
