by

Two UK Royal Navy minesweeper vessels have collided while docking in Bahrain, with one ship caught on video as it backed into the other.

A British military spokesperson has confirmed the mishap, saying the cause of the accident is still under investigation.

The crash took place on Thursday as the HMS Chiddingfold, a Hunt-class mine countermeasures ship, attempted to dock at an undisclosed location in the Gulf island state. As captured in a clip making the rounds online, the Chiddingfold was seen slamming into the bow of the Sandown-class minehunter HMS Bangor.
