The distress in question? The front fell off.



Also, these weren't Russian cargo ships. They're Russian oil tankers built for river service that were used in the open ocean due to sanctions. Sinking them is a major success of sanctions; hopefully more will sink cutting off Russia's illegal oil exports. Luckily the oil slick is moving towards Russia too.
