Japan Warship Hits Other Ship

I read an article today about a Japanese warship hitting a South Korean ship. Fires occurred on both ships after the two collided and three crew members were injured. The ships actually collided under a bridge in the Kanmon Strait. The strait was impassable for a few hours after the collision but is now open to ships. Ship members are currently being questioned to figure out why the ships collided in the first place. Defense Minister Toshimi Kitazawa called a conference shortly after to say that they were sorry for the collision of the ships and will find out what caused the collision in the first place.
